I have a just received a HP J2263A Cable Test Set but no manual so I don't know that I can help you very much. This is what I have discovered so far.

It tests these network types, 10Base-T, TokenRng 4 & 16, T1/E1, ArcNet UTP, Cat5. It does Wire Map, Length and Length to Fault I believe. Also Noise, Resistance, attenuation, NEXT to 20Hz? and Prints out results to a serial printer? I hope this helps write if you have other questions.

If you find someone with a manual or knowledge please share and I will do likewise.

TIA Wildkow

Hi Wildkow,

Thanks for your response, does it only works at 20mhz.? i'll receive one of this scanners in about two weeks, and some body told me it was for Cat5e or maybe Cat5 (150mhz. or 100mhz. respectively), can you see any thing about it?

I think i'll receive a J2201 as well with its manual, the J2201 its for 20mhz. but it looks like the J2263, i think they should be differences in specs but it should work the same way, if so i could scan the manual or write to you paricular functions manual describes if you want.

Thanks again!

I also have an HP J2263A Cable Test Set. I would like to verify operation and functionality. Has anyone found an operation manual for this instrument yet? Does anyone know what voltage/current and polarity to use for the external AC adapter. I need to charge the Nicad battery.

 

[networkstudent]

Yes Quickdraw, i did,

tell me what you want to know about the instrument so i can tell you, this instrument is exactly the same as microtest mt 350

 

[quickdraw88]

Is there a simple test to verify the basic operation of the instrument? A copy of the manual would be best. Where did you find one and what did it cost? Can you also tell me the voltage/current rating of the AC adapter used with this instrument?

Hi Quickdraw,

Okay, i'm not sure but i think the ac adaptor is 7.2 volts, but i'll check later, right now i don't have the scanner near me, but by the way, i think this could help you a little bit, the original external charger is very generic, i'll tell you what i can for you to buy new batteries and a charger if available or needed:

The charger is a generic "power system" an universal charger base with a top for Mitsubishi 900, Diamondtel 90x, GE Mini II cellular phone batteries, and as you could see in your bat, is an alexander batterie, may be the same batterie of the above phones.

To make a very complete test, just take 30ft of cat5 if belden 1583a or any other listed on the scanner better, put the two rj45 connectors on both sides using 568a or b cabling schemes, choose the cable, i.e. belden 1583a, then go to alter limits, turn on all the pairs for testing and for making error, next ranger 20mhz. after all, connect the cable to the scanner and the super injector and push the "auto" button, it has to make all the meassurements and to grade the cable, if you use a cat5 and 30ft or more it has to grade the cable as a cat5 if you use less than 30ft you can make this test but its not as complete because the scanner can't grade.

If you need to know anything else about this scanner just ask, i have no idea of how to help you finding the manual, all i have is a photocopy, i'll see if i can scan it.

By the way, do you have the pc sutostore software for the scanner?

On the other hand, if you don't have the serial cable to connect to a pc or a serial printer, take a look:

DB9 to DB9 is a straigh throug cable, pin 1 to pin 1, 2 to 2, 3 to 3 and so..., just need one db9 male and one female.

to db9 to db25 is the following:

db9---------db25
1------------8
2------------3
3------------2
4------------20
5------------7
6------------6
7------------4
8------------5
9------------22

Hope this helps.
