- Ensure both ends of the cable are securely connected to the main tester unit and the remote unit.
- Check the RJ45 connectors for any bent pins or improper crimping.
- Try testing with a known good cable to rule out a tester issue.
- HDMI/VGA input not displaying:
- Ensure the source device (DVR/NVR) is powered on and outputting video.
- Verify the cable connections are secure.
- Select the correct input mode (HDMI IN or VGA IN) on the tester.
- Check the output resolution of the source device against the tester's supported input resolutions.
- PTZ control not working:
- Ensure the camera supports PTZ control over coaxial cable (COC) or via RS485.
