Function Overview

ONVIF IP Camera Test
The Tester will guide you through a step-by-step
process to test the functionality of IP cameras,
whether they are connected to an existing network or
directly attached to the Tester. These steps include:

Step 1: Testing Ethernet connections, POE, IP

settings, DHCP status/request, or providing
DHCP service to a directly connected camera;

Step 2: Discovering camera(s), accessing camera

settings, ONVIF report generation, showing a
snapshot from the currently selected camera;
and

Step 3: Displaying live video from the camera,

profile/stream settings, and controlling the

camera’s PTZ functions (if camera is capable of

PTZ).

You can adjust the camera’s settings, and record still

images or video from the selected camera. You can
also check the audio signal from the camera if it is
equipped with a microphone. If the camera is directly
connected, the Tester will provide POE voltage to
power the camera.

Standard Definition Analog Camera Test
The Tester can display the analog video signal input
from an attached analog camera or video source with
NTSC or PAL format video output. The Tester can
provide 12VDC (not to exceed 2A) to power the
camera. If the camera has an RS485 port for PTZ
control, the Tester can be used to test that

9 www.triplett.com UM-8075

functionality. The Tester provides support for more
than 30 PTZ command formats.

RS485 PTZ Control (Pan, Tilt, Zoom)
The Tester supports RS485 PTZ Control and more
than 30 kinds of PTZ Protocols which can be carried
out through the RS485 interface for control.

Data Monitoring
The Tester supports receiving data over RS485 and
displays on the screen for data analysis.

High Definition Analog Camera Test
The Tester will display the analog video signal input
from an attached analog camera or video source with
AHD 1.0 or TVI 2.0 format video output, HD-CVI 2.0
or AHD 2.0, CVI 3.0, or TVI 3.0. The Tester can
provide 12VDC (not to exceed 2.0 Amps) to power the
camera. If the camera has an RS485 port for PTZ
control, the Tester can be used to test that
functionality. The Tester provides support for more
than 30 PTZ command formats.

Video Test Image Generator
This function mainly generates video signals, which
can be used to test analog transmission lines, video
recorders etc., It has the capability to display the input
video simultaneously on the display for easy
comparisons to the image being generated. The video
formats supported include PAL and NTSC, HD-CVI,
HD-TVI, AHD and HDMI.

POE and DC Output
The Tester will automatically detect if a camera needs
to be supplied with POE when an IP camera is directly
connected to Network Port 1 (i.e., the blue port).
Network Port 2 accepts POE to test the POE output of
installed PSE network devices. You may also use the
Tester’s 12VDC output jack to power analog cameras.

Audio Test
The Tester can be used to check audio signal

functionality which is input on the Tester’s audio input

jack.
WIFI & RF Tools

The Tester supports RF Spectrum Testing, WIFI
Testing and Signal monitoring @2.4G, 5G
bandwidths. This can be effective in detection of WIFI
signal interference and determining if the data channel
is being blocked or has conflicts. Signal Strength
Detection can help engineers find the most suitable
location and direction for WIFI connections by quickly
detecting the signal strength.

Network Test
The Tester may be used to perform several Ethernet
network test functions, including:

Network Sniff: Monitors and displays Ethernet MAC

IDs and IP addresses broadcast on the network

Subnet List: Monitors and displays Ethernet MAC IDs

and IP addresses broadcast on the selected
subnet according to IP and mask settings

Ping Test: Performs the standard ping messaging

response test on the specified destination IP
address

TDR & RJ45 Cable Test

The Tester may be used to check the condition of the
RJ45 cable pairs (normal, open, short) and perform a
cable length measurement test using TDR. TDR
(Time-Domain Reflection)

The Tester may be used to check the condition of the
RJ45 cable pairs (normal, open, short) and perform a

11 www.triplett.com UM-8075

cable length measurement test using TDR. TDR
(Time-Domain Reflection)

Video Snapshot, Recording and Playback

The Tester supports allows video snapshot and
recording under the conditions of video playback
during the ONVIF test and analog video test (SD and
HD) Allows for playback of any saved snapshot or
video.

Basic Operation

Installing the Battery

The CamView IP series of testers use a rechargeable
lithium-ion polymer battery. To ensure safety when
transporting, always disconnect the battery from the
tester. The device may leave the factory with one of
the following two battery placements:

The battery is placed inside tester and
insulated from the contacts with a thin, plastic sheet.
In this case, the user should open the battery cover,
take out the battery, remove the plastic sheet, then
put the battery back in, and put the battery cover
back on.

The battery is placed outside the tester. In
this case, the user should open the battery cover, put
the battery securely into the battery compartment,
and put the battery cover back on.

Note — The tester will automatically turn on when the
battery is properly placed in the device for the first
time.

Charging the Battery

12 www.triplett.com UM-8075

Be sure to fully charge the battery prior to first use. If
the battery level is too low, the charge indicator will
flash 3 times, and the device won’t turn on.

You should use the POE injector and ethernet cable
provided by the manufacturer to charge the battery.

To charge the unit, connect one end of the ethernet
cable to the Data/Power-out Port on the POE
Injector, then connect the other end of the ethernet
cable to the Network Port 2 (Green outline) on the
tester. Once you have connected the ethernet cable
on both ends, plug in the power cord for the POE
Injector into a power outlet. Network Port 2 will light
up with an orange light when the internal battery is
recharging.

Frequently Asked Questions About the
Battery

The Tester uses a lithium-ion polymer
battery, which does not have a memory effect. Users
can recharge the battery whenever they want.

When recharging, the Charge Indicator
on the tester will light up red. When the battery is
fully charged, the light will turn off.

Due to calculation deviation or other
reason, the battery level can be as low as 90% when
the charge light turns off. Users can ensure their
battery Is fully charged by extending the charge time
for up to 60 minutes.

13 www.triplett.com UM-8075

Lanyard

Users can choose to install the lanyard. The lanyard
can help when handling the device, prevent dropping
the device, avoid damage to the device, and prevent
loss.

To install the lanyard, put one end of the lanyard
through the hole at the top of the device, turn back and
go through the slip-lock (i.e., the plastic piece similar
to a buckle).Tighten the lanyard and confirm that it is
locked in position.

Powering the Device ON/OFF

To turn on the device, press and hold the Power

Button for more than 2 seconds. The Power
Indicator will light up green when the device is turned

on.
To turn off the device, press and hold the Power

Button for more than 2 seconds. When the device is
turned off, the green Power Indicator light will turn
off after the device is fully shut down. Users can also
setup the idle auto power off feature.

LED Worklights

The tester LEDs at the top of the unit also double up
as an LED Worklight. In the ON or OFF state simply
quick press the Power button two times to toggle the
worklight on or off. Great feature for working in low
light conditions.
