1. The test tab has a separate row for each measurement
2. You can expand and close the detail section of a test by clicking on the row
3. The switch icon in each row header represents 4 possible states
4. • Measurement not selected to run white
   • Measurement selected to run blue
   • Measurement in progress flashing blue
   • Measurement finished and it's results OK:green/Not OK

All performed tests with a green or red indicator will be included in the report. If you want to exclude a test from the report, disable the test.

If you want to re-run a single test, deselect and select it again and press the Measure button.

If you long press the Measure button, test will be repeated with the following logic: If only the Wiremap test (an no other tests) has been run previously, then Wiremap will be repeated. If any other tests than Wiremap have been run previoulsy, all of those will be repeated but not the Wiremap. The rationale is that for the Wiremap test, you need the the wiremap adapter attached, so you either want to perform Wiremap or Network tests.

Here you can create a report of the measurements performed in the test tab. All tests which are red or green in the test tab will be included. You can add additional details about the measurements such as:

• The user performing the tests
• Address, Location, Port ID
• Comment
• Add a relevant photo

These will all be included in the report.

The "Tag" field is a special field as it will not only be included in the report, but also in the filename of the generated PDF document. You can use it to quickly identify a measurement or report. If you don't need too much detail about the measurement, specifying a tag may be enough for identification.

The filename under which the report will be saved is:

"Pockethernet <Date> <Time> - <Tag>".pdf

The report can be viewed directly, shared via any application that supports receiving files, or saved locally on your device.

The View report subsection lists all your previously saved reports. Below the name of the report, you have four options in the "Action" row:

• View: Opens the report
• Send: Send the report via another application
• Delete: Delete the report from storage
• Select: Select the report to be included in the combined report

There are two batch export options on the bottom of the report list:

• Combined PDF: This creates a single PDF document from all reports selected above
• All reports as ZIP: This creates a ZIP file all all reports that are stored in the app. It will include the PDF files, the attached images as JPEG files and the raw measurement data in JSON format.

The toner function allows identification and tracking of cables via an electronic signal that can be picked up with a tone probe. You can use it to identify individual cables in a bundle, identify individual wire pairs and track their path in culverts and walls. You can select on which wire pair the signal should be transmitted, which tone should be used at what volume. You can use any analogue tone probe to pick up the signal.

You can use the port blinker function to quickly identify a connection to a switch or router.

Set up the connection parameters and either set to "On" for a constant link or to "Blink" and look for the Link LED on the switch.

When using the Blink function, Pockethernet will repeatedly bring a link up and down, making the Link LED blink.

For switches which use a different color for low-speed links (e.g. orange instead of green), you can set the link speed to 10/100 Mbit so that it's even more easy to identify the connection.

Here you can set the following general settings:

TIA: Set the color scheme and pair numbering according to the TIA-568 A or B standard

Units: Distance units for the TDR measurements

NVP: Set the NVP of the cable use are using for more accurate TDR results

Custom MAC: You can set a custom MAC address to be used by the Pockethernet device during Ethernet communication in case it is needed for e.g. access control reasons

Report logo: Add your own logo to the top left corner of reports generated. The recommended size is 1013x200 pixels.

The WiFi bridge function allows you to use Pockethernet as a mobile WiFi router which creates a transparent WiFi bridge to the Ethernet network.

This allows you to connect WiFi devices (e.g. your smartphone) "directly" to the Ethernet network.

Using this functionality, you can do further network level tests with other apps (e.g. testing networked printers, using network discovery apps, etc.) or set up devices (e.g. provision network devices or IP cameras).

You can check the device serial number, default MAC address and firmware version.

Firmware upgrade: You can check for available firmware upgrades and apply them to the device. The Pockethernet device needs to be connected to an Internet connection via Ethernet for it to be able to download the upgrade image.

The wiremap test determines (by transmitting signals through each wire) if a pin on a connector is connected to the correct pin at the other end.

The status summary line tells you the type of calbe connected or the fault.

These configurations will be listed as OK with a green indicator:

• 4-pair straight through
• 4-pair full crossover (all 4 pairs crossed)
• 4-pair mixed crossover (2 pairs crossed, 2 pairs straight)
• 2-pair straight
• 2-pair crossover

Any other configuration will be marked as Miswire with a red indicator

The graphical wiring diagram shows the status of each individual wire: the corresponding connected pin is shown on the right side. In case of short circuits between the wires, these are shown with a red vertical connection, opens are shown in the middle as a break in the line.

The pair numberings and colors are based on the TIA colour scheme selected in the tools ⇒ settings menu. To get a valid result, you need the have the Pockethernet terminator adapter with the "Wiremap" side attached to the other end of the cable. Pockethernet is only compatible with the wiremap adapter that came with Pockethernet.

The TDR-based, single ended length measurement and fault locating tests the physical properties of a cable, with just one end connected to Pockethernet. See how long the cable is and if there are any short circuits or bad terminations. Pockethernet also detects if the cable is connected to a switched off computer or switch.

The main status line shows the overall result of the measurement if each pair in the cable is terminated the same way (e.g. all pairs are open or connected). Else, it will display "Mixed results".

This features allows you to see the imperfections of a cable along its whole length. A short electrical pulse is sent down the cable, which is reflected from imperfections (short circuits, split pairs, impedance mismatches, open ends) or absorbed by proper termination (e.g. another ethernet port).

The results of the TDR graph test need some expertise to evaluate. Generally, an impedance mismatch value above +/-20 indicates a cable imperfection that can influece signal and connection quality.

This test verifies the presence of PoE supply on the cable. It detects standard 802.3 AF/AT/BT supplies and passive 'always-on' supplies.

The PSE type is determined along with the open circuit and loaded voltage while also establishing the maximum power class supported/allowed by the PSE.

The test will indicate an error if:

• The open/load voltage is below 37V for an AF/AT power supply
• The open/load voltage is below 42V for a BT power supply
• The difference between the Mode A / Mode B voltage is greater than 10%

This test determines if an Ethernet link can be established and what the highest achievable speed is.

If an 1000BASE-T link can be established, the details section will provide information about each link speed advertised by the Ethernet link partner, the polarity of each wire pair and the skew delay for each pair.

The delay skew should be below 56ns per 100m of cable.

The length estimate is calculated based on the link training parameters and gives a very rough estimate (at least +/- 20m error) of the equivalent CAT 5e cable length. Ideally, this shouldn't exceed 100m.

When activated, Pockethernet waits for up to 30 seconds after link establishment to receive CDP or LLDP packages.

These diagnostic packages contain information about the connected switch or router, like the physical port ID Pockethernet is connected to, the system name or management IP address. Information fields, called TLVs of the received packet are listed in the details section of this measurement.

The VLAN test can be used to see any VLANs active on the port or to set the VLAN tags for outgoing packets.

When activated, Pockethernet will wait for 30 seconds for incoming packets and list any detected VLAN tags.

If "Outgoing VLAN tagging" is enabled, any outgoing packets from Pockethernet (DHCP request, Ping, ExtIP) will be tagged so that they are communicated through a specific VLAN.

This section allows you to test the networks DHCP settings and make Pockethernet request its IPv4 configuration via DHCP, or you can set up static IPv4 settings to be used for the following tests.

Pockethernet will wait for 30 seconds for a DHCP request to succeed.

With this test, you can see if IPv6 SLAAC (stateless autoconfiguration) or DHCPv6 is available on the network.

Pockethernet will wait for 30 seconds any Router Advertisement messages needed to establish IPv6 parameters.

You can perform ping tets for up to three IP address or domain names

The results include the pinged IP address (so that this test can also be used for DNS resolution) and the average ping time of 3 measurements.

If the ping test is requested, but no addresses are specified, Pockethernet will ping by default (1) the DHCP server, (2) the gateway, (3) the DNS server.

With this test, you can check for an Internet connection and see the external IP address of the connection.

Using an external server (provided by ip-api.com), the IP information of your connection will be established, along with the ISP and AS name with an approximate physical location.
