Does 'all of' mean 'all .... connected > together' or 'every... individually'? I did't feel the sentense is very good, but I thought the word "simultaneously" made it clearer on this point. And figure 4, 9 and 12 in the standard no longer have switches to select the coupling path. However, I think that to test all combinations can be a good practice.
