6 Issolvi l-problemi

If you encounter issues with your NF-8509, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps.

• L-apparat ma jixgħelx: Check battery level and ensure it is charged. If using test leads, ensure they are correctly inserted.
• Kejl mhux preċiż: Ensure proper connection of cables/test leads. Verify the correct mode is selected for the measurement. Calibrate TDR VoP if cable length measurements are inconsistent.
• Wire tracing signal is weak or noisy: Adjust the sensitivity dial on the receiver. Ensure the transmitter is in SCAN mode. Check for strong electromagnetic interference in the environment.
• POE test fails or times out: Verify the connected port is indeed PoE-enabled. Ensure the cable is functional and correctly connected.
• Id-displej huwa vojt jew iffriżat: Ipprova erġa' ibda l-apparat. Jekk il-problema tippersisti, ikkuntattja l-appoġġ għall-klijenti.
