Input Ports Overview
The Treedix multifunction USB tester includes a set of input ports designed for comprehensive cable and device analysis. These ports allow you to connect a variety of USB‑C and legacy USB cables to measure voltage, current, and data integrity.
- USB‑C Power Input – for testing power delivery and charging performance.
- USB‑C Data Input – for latency and signal quality checks.
- Legacy USB‑A Input – for backward‑compatible testing.
Battery Power and Longevity
The tester can be powered by an internal battery, which provides a convenient, portable solution. A fully charged battery can last for months, potentially years, as long as you periodically check for signs of leakage and replace it when necessary.
eMarker Chip and 240W Power Delivery
The built‑in eMarker chip identifies cables capable of up to 240 W power transfer. During latency testing, the tester measures cable length at roughly 2 meters, confirming both power capability and signal performance.
