CAMI Research's CableEye tester was a real value added solution to our production needs. We are a smaller-to-medium sized manufacturer who needed a way to verify cables from our suppliers and cables we make ourselves in-house. Before the CableEye unit, we used to make our own test sets, which were custom built per cable SKU. Making our own was nice, but took time and money to develop. I think we believed that a universal cable tester was out of our budget and we couldn't justify the cost and complexity of such a device. With the CableEye system, we have a quick solution to save cable designs and quickly spot check or verify a cable build with precision and ease. The CableEye software was easy to use and our quality control team was truly impressed with the operation and accuracy it brought to our product. I have recommended CableEye ATE to other vendors and subsequently learned that some of our contractors already used the brand for their large-scale cable manufacturing. A truly impressive box and when I have talked with their team, a truly impressive company that provides support above the normal these days.

Our CableEye Tester is working perfectly. We've also tested the Import/Export, PinMap ™, Connector Editor ™, and AutoBuild ™ software. We really enjoy the versatility and capabilities of this tester and haven’t found anything else that matches its functionality. Cable/harness build and test times have gone from days to hours and Quality Control has increased. We were using outdated wire checkers and measuring a lot of cables/harnesses by hand using a DMM. Now it feels like we've zoomed into the 21st century. The CAMI Research support staff is fantastic, friendly and quickly responded to any queries we sent them. Can’t say enough about the product.

CableEye product improved our elecrical harness testing over our million parts serial mass production constraint where even a small rejection rate is equal to a large amount of scrap and miss detection is equal to expansive sorting.
The software, with its levels of customizing and automation, enables us to monitor production and understand the electrical testing which was previously almost a "black box". Javascript automation enables unlimited customizing of the CableEye system (message to operator, label printing, counters per type of defects/ways....). Operators quickly identify defects, positions and deviations over limits. Technical department staff understand parametering and easily manage data, programs and are able to solve shutdown with minimal delay.
Product is reliable even running without a dedicated filtered/cooled cabinet on a shop floor in a dusty/hot environment . Service in case of shutdown is good, and continuous improvement of this range of device solved the issue we had.

The CableEye product has been a vital tool for our company since it has been deployed. Prior to using the CableEye system, we would validate harnesses and test connector products by using a multimeter or a tone box. This is a slow process and could take up to 30 minutes or more just for one harness or connector. In addition, the products were checked by two departments to validate continuity. With the CableEye tester, this has been reduced to a couple of minutes with the longest part of the test being the connecting of the cable to the tester. Additionally, the process of having two departments validate the product has been reduced to one department. This saves manpower and hours that can be reallocated to other tasks. Thank you for a wonderful product and support.

Cable testing is one of those "not glamorous" aspects of manufacturing. For us, it was a manual process that was just burdensome and time consuming. I had been considering a CableEye tester for years. Once we had the unit, I was just angry at myself for not getting it years sooner. Not only did the CableEye tester save us countless hours a week in testing time, we are now able to produce wonderful test documents that we ship with each finished assembly. Our customers love test data. Being able to provide this data for our multi-conductor product line has been a true enhancement to our product and our brand. However, and perhaps most importantly, the support we have received from CAMI has been excellent. Post sales support has made a great product truly excellent.

I am extremely pleased with the M4 CableEye cable tester we recently purchased. It was very fast and easy to implement and use. Being in the automation field, everything is connected together with cables and building high-quality custom cables for our customer's applications is a breeze thanks to our CableEye tester. There must be man-years of engineering behind it as there are so many helpful and thoughtful features available at your fingertips. Connect it, learn it and then test your production cables. It's that easy. Having and using this cable tester brings incredible peace of mind to our organization - that the cables are wired correctly and are the highest quality possible.
CAMI Research's customer service is also second to none. I know that they are there to guide me if I have a question about a feature I haven't already used and am working to implement.

CAMI and the CableEye Software have been very beneficial to our ability to process our gear in a timely manner.
PRG/VER is a full-service production company featuring just about every production discipline. Including Audio, Lighting, LED, Video, Camera, Rigging, and much more. Every piece of equipment will pass through a rigorous “QC” Quality Control process every time it is returned from a job. Making sure each item is “rent ready” in the warehouse is how we help to ensure a flawless production.
The speed and accuracy of the CAMI system is remarkable. We can now process the gear in a fraction of the time it would take without the CAMI/CableEye system in place. The detailed results allow our technicians to interpret the findings quickly and to make quick decisions regarding each item. Any problem with an item can be assessed and the proper course of action can be determined with ease.
CAMI has been a fantastic partner in this process from inception to implementation with fantastic service. With their tech support and service warranties [Product Support Subscriptions] keeping the software up to date, CAMI has been great to work with all the way.

The EMG CyberShop testing fixtures for the CAMI HVX have been fabricated to allow our customers and other OEM fabrication companies to test the massive variety of custom cable configurations that makes up Entertainment infrastructure. Depending on the specific customer, the type of connector configurations and pinouts may vary from the typical standard – a variability that is easily handled by the CableEye test system. We have chosen to build these on the backbone of the CAMI units due to the extremely versatile software and simplicity of programming, along with the simple Input to the Unit via MODU. We have fabricated a wide variety of custom fixtures, and the flexibility of the CAMI units have allowed for extremely huge pin counts as well as smaller pin share situations. During the manufacturing process we are able to preload industry standard pinouts and cable configurations, and then continually update the database as new needs are required by our customer. The CAMI M3U and HVX units have proven their continued reliability even under the most demanding conditions. These custom testers quickly become the backbone of our customers' QC departments and are literally relied upon to keep their shops running day in and day out.

The operation and all the functionalities are as expected, the user interface and workmanship are all superb. The automatic creation of high quality test reports is an excellent feature and saves a great deal of time. We have already tested tens of cables!

We use the CableEye test system for assembly, final test, and repair testing. Our ECU conversion kit is a lower cost, higher volume loom, and the CableEye tester has been a key part in making this product a success. It has cut our assembly time by 30%, and because continuity testing is less than a minute (versus an hour with a multi-meter), we can verify construction along the way and eliminate wiring errors before they can get very time consuming to fix.
In general, the CableEye test system ensures that we deliver a quality product to our customers that works the first time it is installed, and helps us contain costs due to an incredibly reduced testing/verification time and the ability to catch mistakes before they can become time consuming to fix. When damaged looms come back to us, the CableEye cable tester allows us to quickly identify whether or not there is a problem, and by being able to identify the circuits that are failing, we can have a good idea where in the loom the problem is located.
Much as their military grade counterparts are, motorsport looms are sealed by using heat shrinkable tubing, epoxy and heat shrinkable boots at the connectors and interfaces. While such a loom can be disassembled to be repaired or reworked, in most cases, it is very time consuming and tedious. It definitely helps to make sure the circuits are correctly wired before final assembly, and being able to isolate the damaged part of the loom avoids wasting time in disassembly of the areas that were actually OK. Quality, time, and cost are three very important factors in motorsport today. You often don't have very much time to develop and build, yet it has to be perfect in order to succeed. Add to this the increasing cost pressures across the industry, and it means that you can't get by without having some ingenuity. The CableEye cable tester helps us ensure we build it right the first time; this makes our customers more successful and saves us time and money otherwise spent in doing it again.

We were first introduced to CableEye cable testers many years ago by one of our clients. To say the least, CableEye equipment is impressive. CAMI has made this equipment small, efficient, easy to use, and amazingly cost effective. A few months ago, we acquired a CableEye M2 system with an expansion unit, and to say it has made our lives easier would be an understatement. Being without a CableEye system in-house is simply not an option. In addition to testing new cables, this system makes identifying existing cables a breeze. Once you have analyzed your existing cables and stored the results, you just put any cable you want on the tester, and the unknown cable is immediately matched to the database.

I just wanted to say I finally had the delight of using the CableEye HVX system I purchased several months ago on a job. I was testing a cable with 6 connectors and a ring terminal. Creating the test boards was simple and creating the custom connectors in the Connector Editor module was very easy as well as creating the custom CB Board was really neat. I was able to recreate the wiring diagram from the custom almost perfectly as the match data. Sending the match data and a test report with each shipment is our new standard here. I am looking forward to using the HiPot features when the need arises.

Just had a chance to use the diode test ability of the CableEye test equipment. We developed a new adapter for use between NPN and PNP sensors that has an LED and a current blocking diode in circuit. The CableEye tester did a great job of mapping it out and saved us the hassle of building yet another test box for the assembly room. Thanks.

It's unbelievable that Ace Electronics is just now replacing/upgrading a tester which we purchased from CAMI Research over 10 years ago. As one of New Jersey's largest cable assembly houses, we really put these products to use. I think it's a real testament to you and your firm as to the quality and durability of your product. Our operators have grown so attached to the tester that they hated to see it replaced. Amazingly, the operators were able to learn the new Windows-based software you shipped us with the demo M3 model rather quickly and really liked the improvements you've made over the years.
Again, I just wanted to thank you and everyone at CAMI for helping us over the years by making our productivity and quality stand out among the industry. I believe this is now the 7th tester which we've purchased from CAMI and each one has surpassed all our expectations.

We chose the CableEye tester for its ability to handle cables with embedded resistors and diodes. It has performed quite well for us. The ability to adjust thresholds was critical as we have R values ranging from 3.3 ohms to 9.1 Megohms as well as diodes embedded. It has not disappointed.
The only problem we encountered was with an embedded IC which could look like a diode facing either direction (depending on the will of the electron Gods that day). Before I could call for help, CAMI notified us of a new software release. It allows me to account for this and not have the operator 'ignore' the error (nice mind reading CAMI).
This has proven to be fast, efficient and very good at finding intermittents which it nicely identifies to the pin level. I find this device to be a winner all around.

The decision of PrimeSource management to acquire a CableEye cable test unit was in fact a very smart move. As the Quality Assurance Manager, also in charge of electrical testing of all PrimeSource products, I find the employment of the CableEye tester on our production floor has given us tremendous relief in man-hours and testing credibility. I no longer worry about the man-hours we will have to spend in performing point-to-point continuity testing of all our cables, harnesses, and other electrical assemblies that we supply to the telecommunications industry. With the CableEye test system, the man-hours spent for testing was dramatically reduced by about eighty percent (80%). Much more importantly, the level of confidence in the tests we are performing on our products is 100%. The CableEye tester for me is a lifesaver.

Our CableEye M3 has been invaluable in increasing the productivity of the QA Department in our electronics production lab while raising the bar on our already high standards of quality and consistency. The M3 performs more continuity and resistance inspections than we were feasibly capable of doing by hand. Most of the systems we produce are original, custom configurations and the versatility of the M3 system, with it's customizable boards and PinMap fixture editor software, has proven to be in incredibly valuable asset to our team of inspectors.

The first we heard about CAMI was in October, 1998. We obtained one for testing shortly thereafter and became instant converts. From then to now, we have used the CableEye test equipment to test and document the interface cables used in our installations. We have discovered and corrected errors in both local and factory produced cables using the CableEye tester. It is fashionable to use "proactive" in almost every context, but this is truly a "proactive" product in that it provides certain and concrete documentation about cable connections. It takes the guesswork out. Wouldn't be without it.
