As an option, Tabs3 Billing allows a "/NWTEST" startup parameter. This allows you to start Tabs3 Billing and automatically run the Network Test program. This feature is particularly useful because the Network Test needs to be run over an extended period of time. If the Network Test is run after business hours, the program may interfere with your backup schedule and prevent an external backup from being created successfully. The "/NWTEST" startup option, along with the startup option to automatically start Tabs3 at a specified time, can be used to start the Network Test at a specified time.

At minimum, two workstations must start the test in order for the Network Test to run successfully. When this startup option is used and the Network Test is started, the Network Test will run until manually stopped using the Stop button in the Network Test window, or until the test encounters an error from which it cannot recover.

An example of the Network Test startup option follows:

"C:\Program Files\Tabs3\TABS.EXE"  /NWTEST  /T  11:30p
