Auto mode
The auto mode offers the best way to test a full cable. The purpose is to set a sequence
of operations, which will be performed for each fiber, one after the other with no need to
modify the configuration or to go to each measurement tab. All operations can be
handled from the MTAU tab.
NOTE
The switch between measurement (if necessary) is automatic. Nevertheless
launching each measurement remains the user responsibility, as some extra
equipment might be needed (ex broadband source for PMD).
