3M™ Dynatel™ Advanced Modular System 965AMS Measurement Functions
POTS
Tests available with the POTS key include Loss, Noise,
Longitudinal Balance, Load Coil Counter, Caller ID, Ringers,
and Level Trace.
POTS>Loss
Use Loss to measure the loss from the far-end of a circuit to the
near-end using a precision tone between 200 Hz and 20kHz.
Note: You must use a device at the far end to generate the tone.
This could be the milliwatt number in the central office or an
965AMS set to the tone mode.
