Chapter 3: How to Certify Fiber Cabling
Bi-Directional Tests
81
3
Do an Autotest.
4
Halfway through the test, the tester tells you to switch the
input and output fibers.
Caution
Switch the connections at both ends of the patch
panel or fiber under test, not at the tester's and
remote’s ports. If you disconnect a test reference
cord from an output port on the tester or remote,
the reference value will be unreliable.
Note
The directions
Main>Remote
(main to remote)
and
Remote>Main
(remote to main) in the bi-
directional results are only the directions of the
optical signals for the second half of the test. If a
fiber fails, the direction does not tell you the
location of the problem.
5
If
Auto Save
is on and the tester is in Smart Remote mode, the
tester uses the next two IDs to save the results for the two
fibers.
If
Auto Save
is off, the
SAVE RESULT
screen shows the next two
IDs available. You can change the IDs if necessary.
