When an active network is detected but no SignalTEK II Remote Unit, select the TESTS icon from the
home screen (Fig 39) and the Tests screen (Fig 40) is displayed. In addition to Autotest, (described in
) POE and Blink tests can be run from here. Select the IP TEST
icon to reach the IP tests Ping, Trace route and Netscan (Fig 41).

PoE
When the Near-End Unit is connected to a
port it automatically detects PoE voltage
(when present). In addition, running a PoE
test will apply a resistive load and measure
the power available at the connected port.
SignalTEK II identifies which pairs are
carrying power, and displays the voltage(V),
current(mA) and power(W). The PoE test
result screen at Fig 42 shows that pair one
and two, and pair three and six are carrying
11 Watts. The port tested is capable of
powering devices that require upto 11 Watts.
The test is PASSED because the power
available is
≥ the minimum power value
entered at set up.

Blink
A Hub Blink test forces the connected port of a network device to blink. SignalTEK II also changes the
speed and therefore LED color (on supporting devices) making it easier to identify the correct port. Select
the BLINK icon from the Tests screen, the test is started and stopped with the soft key F1 which displays
as RUN or STOP accordingly.
