Testing A Fiber
2–14
TFS3031 TekRanger/TekRanger 2 User Manual
You can create a fiber-notes file containing template information that
can be duplicated for other waveform files, for example, operator,
location, and cable information. Load this file before or after
acquiring test data, then when you save the waveform data into a
file, the template notes can be edited and saved with the waveform.
When you load a fiber-notes file, waveform data for the current
acquisition is not affected, but any existing fiber notes are overwrit-
ten.
NOTE
. Some TFS3031 software versions prior to version 8.0 allowed
the user to define all 12 fiber notes. If you load a fiber-notes file or a
waveform file with no “Fiber ID” or “Operator” notes, only the first
10 are loaded as notes 3 through 12. If the existing notes 1 and 2
have the titles “Fiber ID” and “Operator,” these are loaded as notes
1 and 2, and the succeeding 10 notes are loaded as notes 3 through
12.
Refer to page 2–33 for information on entering and editing fiber
notes for the current acquisition from the Save screen. (These
instructions also apply to editing fiber notes from the Print screen.)
Refer to pages 2–38, 2–41, and 2–47 for instructions on viewing
stored fiber notes from the Load, Delete, and Print screens.
