When the OneTouch is in Periodic AutoTest mode, it runs AutoTests at specified intervals and sends the results to Link-Live so that you can view the results over time. Periodic AutoTest is helpful when you are baselining network performance or troubleshooting intermittent problems.

Periodic AutoTesting can be set up only after a unit has been claimed. Your unit must be connected to a network for this process to work. Your results can be sent to Link-Live through either of the network test ports or the management port.
