From the
Main menu, you can access the following:
• Auto-Tests
The menu lists the three automatic tests or Auto-Tests: POTS, DSL, and
TDR, plus the DSL Modem Test. Each Auto-Test is comprised of a series
of individual diagnostic tests that run automatically and in sequence with
the press of a single key. The POTS, DSL, and TDR Auto-Tests are
described in detail in Chapters 4, 5, and 6, respectively. The DSL Modem
Test is described in Chapter 5.
• “Toolbox” tests
Each “toolbox” contains a group of functionally related individual tests.
The
POTS, XDSL, and TDR softkeys, which are located at the bottom of
the
Main menu, each let you access a group of tests. For descriptions of
the tests in the POTS, XDSL, or TDR toolbox, see Chapter 4, 5, or 6,
respectively.
Note
When running a Continuous test, make sure that you connect the
green Ground test lead to a good Earth ground, C.O. Frame ground,
or cable sheath ground connection point. If you move the Tip & Ring
test leads to different terminals during a Continuous test, always
leave the Ground test lead connected to the ground point.
• Test setup menus
The
Setups softkey provides direct access to the setup menu for a selected
(highlighted) test. For information on setting up a test, see the setup
section for that test in Chapter 4, 5, or 6.
