Selecting Auto or Manual OTDR Mode

Typically, you should use Auto OTDR mode when
certifying cabling with the OTDR.
From the HOME screen, press
Auto or Manual.
In Auto OTDR mode, the tester automatically selects certain
settings based on the length and overall loss of the cabling.
This mode is the easiest to use, provides the most
comprehensive view of the events on the cabling, and is the
best choice for most applications.
