Test Pattern
Test Pattern mode is the second mode presented in the menu selection process (blue solid).
Test Pattern mode is used for testing communication channels; it does this by sending data
packets over the channel to the other Click 510 or computer. It is especially helpful for de-
bugging because it locates the break in your channel of communication. Use it when you are
connecting two Click 510 devices together or connecting a Click 510 to a computer.
This mode has two submenus on which you can specify the data packet and how it will be
sent.
