Other DMM tests, what and where are my faults?

DMM, auto test. One touch test but still need to analyze every tests one by one.

Same tests with SmartR, easier to understand the problem

Instead of running the test one by one or analyze them one by one. Pair detective gives
you a complete check-up of your line with a clear pass/fail status and indication about
the potential physical faults on your pair and not simply a color or a value
