Bi-Directional Testing
You can test cabling in both directions and save the bi-
directional test results in all test modes.
Bi-Directional Testing in Smart Remote or Loopback
Mode
1
On the main tester’s
Job
tab in Setup, enter names
for
END 1
and
END 2
to identify the ends of the
cabling. Name
END 1
as the end where the main
tester will be located.
2
Set
THIS END
to
END 1
.
3
On the main tester's
Loss/Length
tab, set
BI-DIRECTIONAL
to
Enabled
.
4
Run a loss/length test on the cabling. Halfway
through the test, the tester prompts you to swap the
fibers at each end of the cabling. Swap the
connections at the patch panel, not at the tester's
ports.
5
Press
s
to save the test.
Bi-Directional Testing in Far End Source Mode
1
On the
Job
tab in Setup, enter names for
END 1
and
END 2
to identify the ends of the cabling. Name
END
1
as the end you will test first.

4
On the
Job
tab, change
THIS END
to
END 2
; then test
all the cabling from the other end. When you save
each result, use the same fiber ID you used for the
results from the first end. The used IDs will be in the
IDs IN CURRENT FOLDER
list.
Diagnosing Loss/Length Test Failures
Table 6-10 describes some typical causes of loss/length test
failures.
See also the table in Appendix C, which shows results
from a survey on common causes of fiber link failures.
