Saving Autotest Results
A DSP-4000 test tool can store the results of 500 or more Autotests, depending on
the test standard used. Results are stored in text-only format.
A DSP-4100 with STORE PLOT DATA enabled can store at least 250 Autotests
in graphical format on a 16 MB multimedia card, depending on the standard used.
More Autotests can be saved if plot data is not included. If STORE PLOT DATA
is enabled, the saved Autotest results include plots from tests such as the
attenuation and NEXT tests. HDTDR and HDTDX plots are also saved. Saving the
plot data lets you include plots on reports uploaded to a PC and printed with
CableManager Software. More tests can be stored if plot data is not saved with the
Autotest results.
You can save the results from an Autotest anytime after the Autotest is complete,
but before another Autotest or a Single Test is started.
A cable identification (cable ID) is assigned to each Autotest you save. The screen
you use for entering a cable ID depends on whether the auto sequence function is
disabled or enabled in SETUP.
