Step TDR Functionality (optional)
On units that contain the Step TDR feature, the “Unit”
option in the TDR Config menu shows “Step TDR” as
option 2. This will switch the unit from displaying pulse
TDR information to step TDR information. The step TDR
feature is useful in discovering bridge taps and other
faults that are more difficult to see with a pulse TDR.
