Safety precautions must be observed when handling the HP 37717C Optical
Modules as these generate laser signals which can cause serious injury. The
guidelines below must be followed:
Check the connector configuration of the Fiber Optic Interfaces. If these are
fitted with a connector interface other than FC/PC then remove the existing
connector interface and fit the FC/PC connector interface.
Check for any damage to the HP 37717C Fiber Optic Interface spring loaded
aperture covers and connectors. Do not power up the instrument if in any doubt
about the integrity of these connectors.
Make all connections to the HP 37717C Fiber Optic Interfaces before powering
up the instrument.
Procedure
1. Connect the STM-1 Optical Out Port to the HP 8153A (ensure that all
connections are tight and that the cable has no twists).
2. Switch on the HP 37717C, check that immediately on power up the LASER ON
led on the front panel illuminates for a few seconds and Recall the HP 37717C
DEFAULT SETTINGS as shown on Page 3-2.
3. Recall default settings on the HP 8153A:
Press
to select MENU mode on the HP 8153A.
Press
to display RECALL.
Press
, select 0 —
A and press
to recall the default settings
(wavelength = 1300 nm, measurement time = 200 ms, autorange).
