User Calibration Feature
The cleaning swabs supplied with EXFO test equipment are specially
designed to clean inside the ports without having to disassemble the unit.
No cleaning solution is required as the tips are used dry.
1.
Take a swab from the package without touching the soft end.
2.
Slowly insert the swab into the port until it reaches the ferrule inside
(A slight clockwise rotating movement may help)
3.
Applying moderate pressure, turn the swab one full turn.
4.
Continue to turn as you withdraw the swab.
5.
Dispose of the used swab after 5 uses or as soon as it is visibly dirty.

MPORTANT
To help keep the source port clean, it is recommended that the
protective cap be installed when the unit is not being used and that
the fiber ends are always cleaned before connecting them to the
source port.
The cleaning swabs can also be used to clean adapters before inserting
connectors.
Note:
Individual connectors still need to be cleaned according to standard
cleaning methods.
If any abnormal power loss is observed, the source port and pigtail behind
the front panel of the module may require cleaning. Contact EXFO for
further information.
User Calibration Feature
An offset can be introduced into your IQ-2600B to correct a wavelength
deviation, as measured by a reference wavelength meter.
Note:
A calibrated wavelength meter is required to perform a user calibration.
