The test set has 4GB of internal storage (up to 16GB optional) and can store thou-
sands of phone numbers (TIMS) and contacts (via the built-in contacts app in

thousands of events in
internal memory. Tap the menu button and then “

sults
”. Select the Alarm, Event, Slips or BERT error then hit OK. Note the log will cap-
ture any alarm or event and place in a DS1 or DS3 folder with a date and time stamp.

logging at greater than 45% error rate.

your test results.
