The information entered in the Link Description window concerns the
editing and/or the modifications of the cable and fiber parameters. When
a trace is recalled without recall of the configuration, the parameters of
this trace will be present only in its signature.
Fiber ID
Select the parameter Fiber Id and enter a name for the fiber, using the
edition keypad.
Fiber Number / Fiber Code
The parameter Fiber Number becomes Fiber Code if, in the Cable
Structure window, the Cable Content parameter is defined on another
parameter than Fiber ( Ribbon/Fiber , Tube/Fiber or Tube/Ribbon/
Fiber ). See page 30 .
The fiber code corresponds to the fiber number if, in the Cable Struc-
ture , the parameter Color coding is defined on No .
The fiber code corresponds to the fiber color if, in the Cable Structure,
the parameter Color coding is defined on Yes .
Select the parameter Fiber Number/Fiber Code and modify the param-
eter using the left and right direction keys.
The fiber number can be automatically incremented/decremented at
each new file save if it has been configured in the File Setup page
(see
"Change Fiber Nbr" page 28 ).
NOTE
The Fiber Code and the fiber number concatenated with Fiber Name
are interdependent: they are incremented or decremented at the
same time. However, the fiber number remains a number only, while
the fiber code is alphanumerical. Whether it includes a color code or
not (see
"Cable structure" page 29 ), it may be composed of one, two
or three parts (see figure Table 15 on page 28 ).
