DSL Auto-Test
The DSL Auto-Test is a pre-programmed test sequence that requires a Fluke
Networks TN2100 Terminator or TN2200 Terminator II, or another CopperPro
Series II tester operating in the “Terminator Emulator” mode, as the far-end
terminating device. The CopperPro tester automatically controls the
Terminator or Terminator Emulator over the test pair.
During the DSL Auto-Test the CopperPro tester first runs a sequence of single-
ended parametric tests, followed by optional terminated VF transmission tests,
then a series of terminated wideband or broadband transmission tests. These
test results are used to effectively qualify the pair for either a specific, user-
selected digital service, or a series of digital services in one pass. The
following individual tests are conducted:
• AC & DC Voltage
• Shorts & Grounds
• Opens
• Load Coils
• VF Metallic Noise & Power Influence (optional)
• VF Longitudinal Balance (optional)
• Single-tone VF Loss, or SmartTone Loss / Slope (optional)
• Tip, Ring, Loop, & Ground Resistance
• Resistive Unbalance
• Wideband or Broadband Noise / Level
• Single-Frequency WB or BB Loss, or Composite-Tone WB or BB Loss*
• Wideband or Broadband Longitudinal Balance
* Requires TN2100 Terminator or TN2200 Terminator II.
