BIDI MODE
The Link Wizard is the name of the process used to set up the Fiber OWL 7 BIDI for a certification test. During the Link Wizard,
the user will input job-related information and key test parameters, set the optical reference, and verify the quality of any additional
test cables.
This section will walk the user through the Link Wizard for a typical bi-directional certification test using
BIDI
mode. It is assumed
the link has patch panels on both ends of the fiber link under test, and the user is using the 1-jumper reference method.
PAIR
and
CERT
test modes also utilize the Link Wizard. Users should be able to adapt this
BIDI
mode example to
PAIR/CERT
mode tests.
