SRT TEST Signal

Send a generated moving test signal to verify an SRT receiver and network path.

Overview

Use this guide to check an SRT receiver or network path without preparing a camera feed.

Installation

  • Install the application from its verified distribution link below.
  • Prepare the receiving address, UDP port, SRT mode, and any encryption values.
  • Keep the receiver status visible while starting the test.

Basic configuration

  1. Match the sending mode with the receiver's Caller or Listener mode.
  2. Enter the receiver address and UDP port where required.
  3. Configure matching encryption values when the path is encrypted.
  4. Select and start the generated test source.

Main operations

Watch the moving pattern at the receiver to distinguish a live signal from a frozen frame. Record the configured mode and port with the result so the test can be repeated.

Checks before use

  • Confirm that the receiving application supports the transmitted stream.
  • Check firewall and address translation rules on the UDP path.
  • Treat a successful test as a path check, not proof that every production source is configured correctly.

Troubleshooting

If the receiver remains idle, check mode, address, port, and encryption in that order. See the common connection FAQ.
