Test Menu 389
Test Menu The Test Menu allows pinging. The counter determines the number of pings,
ranging from 1 to 30. Setting the Counter field to 0 lets ping run continuously. The
timer determines the maximum number of seconds allowed for and between each
ping. If a ping is not successful on or before the Timer field value, the device
displays a time out. If the ping is received late (after a timeout) the timer
automatically increments by one second. The maximum value of the timer is 10
seconds. If a single ping is not completed in 10 seconds, the unit times out. The
results of the ping are the target unit; status of the data; and minimum, maximum,
and average times in milliseconds. To end a ping at any point, press Escape.
