1 OVERVIEW
The WPS-CCTV-TESTER was developed for the on-site installation and
maintenance of surveillance video monitoring systems. It can be used for
displaying video to set up the scene for a camera (positioning, zoom, focus),
testing data and controlling PTZ, generating video pattern images, capturing
RS485 and testing Cat5e/6 cable. Digital multi-meter for voltage and continuity
testing is also available. The easy operation and portability makes it simple for
the CCTV technician to install and maintain CCTV systems, improving work
efciency and reducing labor costs.
23. External power supply (5V DC): It is highly recommended to use the
supplied power adapter.
24. UTP cable port: use with supplied UTP Cat5e/6 cable tester.
25. RS232 interface: RS232 communication for the PTZ.
26. Audio input: 3.5mm stereo
27. 12V DC 1A power output: output 12V DC power for camera
28. Tester speaker
29. Video In: Composite BNC
30. Video Out: Composite BNC
31. RS485/422 Interface: RS485/RS422 communication for PTZ.

3 PREPARATION FOR USE
3.1 Installing the Battery
1. Remove the tester from the protective case
2. Remove the battery door located on the left side of the tester
3. Connect the battery cable to the socket located towards the top of the
tester
4. Install the door back onto the tester
5. Insert the tester into the protective case
3.2 Charging the Battery
Before using the tester for the rst time, fully charge the battery.
The Charge indicator will illuminate RED while the battery is charging; this
indicator will turn OFF once the battery is approximately 90% charged.
3.3 Power Button
Press & hold the power button for 2 seconds to turn the tester On or Off.
4 OPERATION
4.1 PTZ Controller
Display the input video images. Pan/tilt the P/T device and zoom in/ out the
image. Setup the controlling parameters such as protocol, communication
port, baud rate, PTZ ID, pan/tilt speed; set and call preset position.
4.1.1 PTZ Connections
The following connections should be conrmed before use:
• Video In to the output of camera
• RS485 connector to the PTZ connection on the camera or controlling
A. Auto Poweroff: Sets the amount of time for auto shut-down.
Disabled: Disables Auto Poweroff
Time for Auto Poweroff: 5 to 60 min in 5 min increments
B. Keypad tone: Enables of Disables keypad tone when key is pressed.
C. Language: Selects language of OSD menu
D. Brightness: Sets the brightness of OSD menu and background.
0 – Dim
7 - Bright
E. Address search: Enables or Disables PTZ Address Search menu.
Changing Settings
1. Press or key to select the desired setting.
2. Press or to change the value.
3. Press ENTER to save the change or press RETURN key to give up the change.
4.7 PTZ Address Scanning
Note: Isolate the PTZ camera with other PTZ cameras before searching. Other-
wise all the PTZ cameras in the same system will pan at the same time.
1. Press MODE to enter the Device Setting menu.
2. Press or to set ADDRESS SEARCH to ON. Press ENTER to conrm.
3. Press MODE to switch to the sub-menu.
(Note: The system returns to OFF after shutdown and the scan sub-menu closes
automatically.)
4. Press SET key to select protocol, communication port, and communication
rate the same as the PTZ camera.
5. Press NEAR or FAR key, the address values will constantly increase or
decrease.
NEAR: The tester will search continuously from 1 to 256. Once the camera pans
to the right, press any key to stop searching.
FAR: The tester will search continuously from 256 to 1. Once the camera pans
to the right, press any key to stop searching.
WIDE: The tester will search step by step from 1 to 256. When the ID is searched,
the PTZ camera will stop panning.
