Network Tests
Selecting this button takes you to a menu of three manual tests that
report the condition of the cable and verify connectivity to network
devices. They are Port Discovery, Ping Test, and Hub Flash. Test
Results cannot be saved.
Port Discovery: Identifies an Ethernet connection and reports pertinent
information including speed of the link, type of link (MDI, MDI-X or Auto
MDI/MDI-X), Signal to Noise Ratio and Skew (if over 1000 Megabit). Also
Identifies telephone connections.
Ping Test: Simultaneously pings up to seven different IP addresses and
can be run in DHCP or manual addressing modes.
Hub Flash: Sends an intermittent link signal to flash the link status light
on Ethernet equipment.
Job Manager
The Job Manager displays a list of jobs that have been uploaded from
the Plan-Um software or have been created in the Validator-NT and are
on the CF card. By highlighting a job name and pressing the Open (F1)
soft key you can select an existing job to test or edit the job information
using the Auto Test menu functions.

as Display Units, Display Contrast, internal time settings, Shutdown
Timeouts etc. Normally these can be set once and left alone unless
some specific change is desired. Each function has drop down dialog
boxes for changes, if necessary.
