2. Overview
The FNB48P USB tester is a high-reliability, high-safety USB voltage and current detection meter and a mobile communication terminal fast charging trigger. It features a 1.77-inch TFT-LCD display and integrated USB-A, Micro-USB, and Type-C interfaces. It utilizes a dedicated 16-bit ADC and a PD protocol physical chip. The device can measure the power supply or consumption of USB interfaces, mobile phone chargers, U disks, etc. It can also test mobile phone charging power, mobile power input/output conditions, and charger fast charging protocols. This manual contains essential safety information, warning tips, and solutions for common abnormal situations. Please read carefully and adhere strictly to all warnings and precautions.
3. Safety Precautions
- Do not connect the monitoring interface to a power supply exceeding 24V.
- Do not connect the PC connection port to a power source exceeding 16V.
- Only one pair of monitoring interfaces (one input port, one output port) can operate simultaneously. When a pair of monitoring interfaces is active, connecting equipment to other monitoring interfaces is prohibited (except for the PC connection port, which can be connected to an external power supply).
- When using the fast charge trigger module, do not connect equipment that cannot withstand high voltage to any monitoring interface.
- After using PD trigger/monitor/conversion/read E-Marker cable functions, ensure the PD communication switch in the lower right corner is returned to the OFF position.
- When operating at high power, the instrument's temperature may rise. Exercise caution to prevent burns.
- Do not charge the phone after triggering fast charge. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage to the phone resulting from this action.
