Using AutoTest, Switch, and Cable Test
Using AutoTest
AutoTest can test up to ten targets. These targets can be
local or off-net targets (devices). You can enter the IP
address or a DNS name. If you specify a target address
without specifying a port number, AutoTest will perform an
ICMP Ping to the target address. If you specify a port
number, AutoTest will perform a TCP Connectivity test (SYN/
ACK). See figures 14 and 15.
Select Tools > AutoTest Configuration and enter the
target address(s). Entering a port number is optional.
AutoTest will attempt to Ping/Connect to the target device
three times. If Continuous is selected, the test will run until
you exit the AutoTest screen.

Select Flash Port to stimulate the switch to flash the LED
on the port that the LR-AT is connected into. This can help
locate the switch port in the closet. Set the Flash Port flash
rate from slow to fast to differentiate from the other switch
port LED flash rates.
Using the Cable Test
There are three use models for using the Cable screen:
Connect a cable from the top LR-AT RJ-45 connector
into the side cable test RJ-45 connector to measure
length and wire mapping.
Connect an open cable (non-terminated) into the top
LR-AT RJ-45 connector and measure length. An un-
terminated cable can also be traced using a Fluke
Networks IntelliTone tester and the To ne function.
Connect a cable into the top LR-AT RJ-45 connector
and select Tone. Using a Fluke Networks IntelliTone
tester, you can trace the wire or locate it in the switch
closet.

Using PoE Feature
PoE is disabled by default. To enable PoE, select Tools > PoE
Configuration, and check Enable PoE. Select the Class
you want to verify. If you have purchased the LR-AT 2000,
you can TruePower
TM
test the Class. The results are displayed
in the Autotest and Switch tests.
When you select a PoE Class higher than the switch can
handle, LR-AT 2000 will provide the loaded results
indicating the switch can not handle this Class setting. The
LR-AT 1000 will display the unloaded results indicating
voltage and wattage selected.
The following example was tested on a Class 3 (13w) switch.
The tester PoE configuration was set to Class 4 (25w) with
TruePower
TM
disabled.
Figure 19 displays the AutoTest results and Figure 20
displays the Switch results. Notice in the Autotest results,
the wire pair polarity, wattage requested and wattage
received, voltage and PSE type are given.
PSE is the Power Sourcing Equipment rating, Type 1
(12.95W - 15.40W) and Type 2 (25.5W - 34.20W).

Using the Reflector Feature (LR-AT 2000 only)
The Reflector feature allows the LR-AT 2000 to be used as a
remote device for Fluke Networks EtherScope Network
Assistant, MetroScope Service Provider, and the OptiView
Analyzer’s throughput performance tests.
See Reflector Configuration on page 14 for setting up this
feature. Once set up, the device can be used as the remote
responding device for throughput performance testing.
There is no start or stop, and no results are displayed on the
tester.
Using the Fiber Connection
Simply plug in the desired SFP adapter into the fiber port
on the top of the tester and connect the fiber cable to the
network. If both fiber and RJ-45 copper are connected to
the network, the copper connection has priority.
Figure 23 shows the Switch results through a fiber
connection with link, 1000 Mbps speed, full duplex, with a
signal strength of 7.35dBm.
