After a channel plan, and limit plan (See Help section on CONFIGURE MEASURE - LIMIT SETS, for more information about limit sets.) has been selected, press the START softkey and the COMBO TEST sequentially measures the signal performance of all assigned channels in the COMBO TEST configuration.

NOTE:
In a Combo AutoTest, the selected limit set will apply to both the Video Channels AutoTest and the Cable Modem AutoTest. (See Help section on CONFIGURE MEASURE - LIMIT SETS, for more information about limit sets.)

On the COMBO TEST - AUTOTEST IN PROGRESS screen, a horizontal progress bar shows how much of the test is complete. The test first measures the assigned video channels and then measures the assigned DOCSIS channels. The category being tested is indicated directly below the progress bar. (Note: The Help system on this meter is disabled during all tests while they are in progress.)

To stop the AutoTest process at any time, press the STOP softkey. A confirmation dialog box then appears with options of canceling or continuing the process.

Upon test completion, the COMBO AUTOTEST results screen displays an overall Pass/Fail result and the Pass/Fail result of each channel tested.
