SecuriTEST is a portable device for testing and
troubleshooting various functions of CCTV cameras. It
includes functions to test video image quality, control
PTZ operation, analyzes various PTZ protocols,
generates video test patterns, test UTP cables and
includes a full-function Digital MultiMeter.

All functions are controlled through the front keypad and
on-screen display for quick and easy setup of fixed and
PTZ camera systems.

2. SecuriTEST Introduction

Video Tester

►

Displays the output signal from the

connected CCTV camera. Used to
adjust aim and adjust and
troubleshoot cameras.

►

Video signal generator mode:

Outputs color bars and Red, Blue
and Green screens to allow
technicians to configure monitors
and troubleshot cameras by sending
a known good video signal down a
questionable coax run. Supports
both PAL & NTSC video signal
formats.

MultiMeter

►

Measures resistance, AC/DC

voltage and current, and provides
continuity beep and display hold
functions.

PTZ Controller

►

The PTZ controller tests the

movement of the dome and allows
manual zoom and manual focus
control of the camera. Supports
various RS-485 and RS-422
