Tip:
When snapping the LC launch cord into the cradle it is vital to make sure the circular aperture on the metal
adapter faces down, towards the tool. Failure to align the adapter properly will create difficulty with the process.
Also, ensure that the metal adapter is firmly tightened onto the cord before installing onto the cradle.
Tip:
When terminating ST connectors, the launch cord must be inserted
directly onto the connector’s ferrule
. If it is
not fully pushed onto the connector, the tool may not recognize the connector in the following steps.
