DLS 360 Dual Laser Source
Device Manual and Quick-Start Guide
The DLS 360 dual laser source is a singlemode test laser used for verifying the proper
function of fiber optic networks. This document will serve as an overview of the major
features and functions of the device and will offer tips for troubleshooting common issues
in optical networks.

1. Connector Adapter - Interchangeable
The DLS 360 comes with an SC screw-on adapter. Additional adapters are available from ODM; see
page 4 of this document for more information.
2. Wavelength Indicator
This unit offers 1490nm and 1625nm wavelengths. When the DLS 360 is turned on, the red
light indicates which wavelength is selected. The red light will blink to indicate when the 2kHz
modulation is turned ON.
3. Low Battery Indicator
A red indicator light will appear when the CR2 battery power is low. Replace the battery to return
to normal operation of the DLS 360.
4. Power Button
Press this button to turn the DLS 360 ON and OFF. The unit will turn off automatically after 15
minutes. To bypass the auto-shutoff, hold the power button for 5 seconds when turning ON.
5. 2kHz Button
Toggles 2kHz modulation of currently-selected wavelength output. Laser flashes at 2000 times per
second to provide a recognizable signal to a companion power meter. Output power of the laser is
reduced by 3dB when the modulation is active.
6. Wavelength Button
Switches between the 1490nm and 1625nm wavelength.
7. External Power Port
Accepts AC 030 power supply. Power supply is not a battery charger, just battery bypass.
