Setup OTDR Screens
The Setup OTDR Screens walk through the basic setup for auto mode testing
and manual mode testing. The left/previous arrow, returns to the previous page
and the right/next arrow, advances to the next page. The check box in the
bottom middle returns to the main OTDR Setup page.
Use these check boxes to set the
launch or tail cable on or off.
Select the edit icons to input the
length of the launch and tail cables
as appropriate. These may also
be set to auto, in which case the
OTDR will establish the first event
as the end of the launch cable
and the second to last event (the
event before the end event) as the
beginning of the tail cable.
Select one or both wavelengths in
either multimode or single-mode.
Limits allows the user
to select from a large
number of standards for
pass/fail thresholds or to
manually set thresholds
as required.
