This read-write integer, in seconds from 0 to 86400, sets how long an upstream RF test can run before the ComPort automatically resets to terminate it if the ComController hasn't ended the test itself; 0 means no timeout, which is also the default. It's a safety net so a hung or forgotten RF test doesn't leave a subscriber's STU stuck out of service indefinitely. For example, an engineer running upstream tests overnight would set stuUpstrmTestTimeout to something like 300 seconds so any test session that hangs will self-terminate and restore normal service automatically.
