Remote End Testing

If you have a second test tool or a smart remote, you can perform remote end
testing. The remote end testing feature allows you to run the near-end crosstalk
(NEXT) test at the far end of the cable and get the attenuation to crosstalk ratio
(ACR) from the far end of the cable without switching the positions of the main
and remote units.

When you enable remote testing the NEXT@REMOTE and ACR@REMOTE
tests appear in the AUTOTEST and SINGLE TEST modes if the selected test
standard requires the tests. Model DSP-2000 also includes RL@REMOTE and
PSNEXT@REMOTE tests.

Selecting Auto Detect allows the test tool to identify the remote as a standard or
smart remote and run the REMOTE tests as appropriate.

To enable remote end testing, proceed as follows:

1.

Turn the rotary switch on the main unit to SETUP.

2.

Use

D to highlight the remote end testing status.

3.

Press

! Choice.

4.

Use

U to highlight Enable or Auto Detect; then press E

If you use a DSP-100 unit as a remote, the remote unit displays the following
status messages:

SMART REMOTE READY: The remote unit is waiting for the main unit to
start a test.

SMART REMOTE TESTING: The main unit is running a test.
SMART REMOTE PASS or FAIL: Pass or fail is the overall result of the test
just completed. This message is displayed for about 3 seconds after a test is
completed.

SMART REMOTE READY

PREVIOUS TEST: PASS or PREVIOUS TEST: FAIL: The remote is
waiting for the main unit to start another test. Pass or fail is the overall result of
the previous test.
