Essentials for Reliable Fiber Test Results   

About Setting the Reference 

The reference serves as the baseline power level for loss 
measurements. Regular referencing helps account for 
minor variations in source power and connection 
integrity. Also, since the reference is the baseline for 
measurements, the losses of the patch cords and adapters 
used during referencing are excluded from test results. 

Note 

Turn on the tester and smart remote and let 
them sit for 5 minutes before setting the 
reference. Allow additional time if the modules 
have been stored above or below room 
temperature. 

You should set the reference at these times: 

•

 

At the beginning of each day using the remote end 
setup (Figures 7 through 13) you will use that day.  

•

 

Anytime you reconnect a patch cord to the module’s 
output or other source. 

•

 

Anytime the tester warns you that the reference is 
out of date. 

•

 

Anytime you see a negative loss measurement. (See 
the Technical Reference Handbook for more 
information.) 

You must set the reference at these times: 

•

 

Anytime you change the fiber module in the tester 
or smart remote. 

•

 

Anytime you start using a different smart remote. 

•

 

Anytime you change the Test Method in Setup. 

•

 

Twenty-four hours after the reference was 
previously set. 

Reference values should not change by more than a few 
tenths of a dB from day to day. Larger changes may 
indicate a problem with the patch cords or connections. 

See the sections on Smart Remote, Loopback, and Far 
End Source modes for details on setting the reference for 
each mode.
