Viewing Test Limits
To see the values of a test limit that includes the fiber type
selected on the Cable tab, do the following:
1 Press
S
; then select a test’s tab.
2 Select TEST LIMIT.
3 Highlight a limit on the SET TEST LIMIT screen; then
press
A
View Limit.
If the Test Limit or Fiber Type is Not Valid with the
Test
•
The fiber type was changed on the Cable tab in Setup,
and the current test limit does not include the fiber
type. Select a different test limit.
•
The fiber type or test limit is missing a wavelength the
test uses. For example, you are trying to run a dual-
wavelength OTDR test, but the fiber type or limit does
not include both wavelengths. Select a different fiber
type or test limit.
•
The installed module does not support the selected
fiber type or test limit. For example, a singlemode fiber
type is selected, but a multimode module is installed.
Select a different fiber type or test limit or install a
different module.
•
The test limit does not include parameters for the type
of test you are trying to run. For example, you are
trying to run an OTDR test, but only loss/length limits
are defined in the selected test limit. Select a test limit
that includes limits for the test you want to run.
If you selected a custom fiber type or limit, you could also
edit the fiber type or limit to make it valid with the test. See
Chapter 10 for details.
