6 Verify that all wire indicator LEDs are solid green. If they are not solid green you must recrimp
using a new RJ45 connector and perform the passive test again.
7 If all wire indicator LEDs are solid green, “exercise” the cable by bending it in all directions near
the cable termination to ensure that all connections are solid.
If an LED turns from solid green to flashing red/amber due to an intermittent wire connection,
the Cable Tester locks in the error state even if the wire connection is restored. The LED remains
locked for the duration of the Cable Tester’s 60 second power-up period.
If all wire LEDs are solid green, the cable has passed the passive test.
Example
The following example shows a passive test.

Testing SharpX cables by performing an active test
You can use the AutoVu Cable Tester to perform an active test on a SharpX cable and verify that the
camera ports on the LPR Processing Unit are not defective.
Before you begin
• Read about
.
•
on the SharpX camera cable.
What you should know
• The unit powers up automatically when you push the
Test
button on the Cable Tester. The unit
powers down when you toggle any switch, remove the camera cable, or when it has been idle for
60 seconds
• The active test can only be performed on a SharpX cable. If you attempt to run an Active test on a
Sharp cable, the Cable Tester will power off.
• This test only verifies the physical properties (continuity, voltage, termination) of the LPR
Processing Unit ports. Other problems, such as firmware/software issues can make a camera
port inoperative. The Cable Tester will not be able to signal such issues via an Active test. If the
cable passes the passive and active test, but you still have LPR camera problems, contact Genetec
Technical Support.
To test the camera cable by performing an active test:
1 Connect the SharpX cable to the appropriate port on the Cable Tester.
