Test Procedure
1. Ensure that the light source and optical power meter are ready and in the stable
state.
2. Set
of the optical power meter (8250A or 8230), which is connected to a sensor
to be tested, to the calibration wavelength. Ensure that
c is displayed.
3. Press
[ZERO]
on the standard optical power meter and the power meter to be
tested to cancel the offset of the sensor.
4. In reference to Figure 6-2, connect the light source to the standard optical power
meter by using the optical fiber.
5. Record the measured value of the standard optical power meter.
6. In reference to Figure 6-2, connect the optical fiber to the light source and the
optical power meter to be tested.
7. Record the measured value of the power meter to be tested.
8. Ensure that the measured value of the power meter to be tested is
1.6% or less
of the measured value of the standard optical power meter.
