Enter the IP address and Test Settings and select the Start button. The Operational State will read Ping Test. After the test is completed, use the Refresh button to display the results of the test. The results of the test will be displayed in the top portion of the screen. If the test is interrupted by pressing the Stop button, the results of the test prior to termination will be displayed.
