Class 1 and Class 2 Laser Products
Under no circumstances should a user look directly into optical connectors. Some sources produce invisible radiation that can
permanently damage your eyes.
Under no circumstances should a user view the device’s optical connectors using magnification unless the device is detached from
the SCT series tester.
Always cover the device’s fiber optic output connector with the dust cap when not in use. The output source is active when the
device is powered.
Under no circumstances should a user look directly into the devices visual fault locator’s output. Long term exposure to the visual
fault locator’s output is potentially hazardous.
Under no circumstances should a user activate the visual fault locator without first connecting the visual fault locator to the link
under test.
If this product is used in a manner not specified by the manufacturer hazardous radiation exposure might result.
To prevent damage to the device and ensure result accuracy:
It is important that fiber optic patch cords, fiber under test and adapters are clean prior to testing. Always clean and inspect fiber
connectors prior to testing. Contamination can degrade optical performance, cause misalignment or cause back reflections leading to
poor results. Contamination can also damage the device and cable under test.
Always cover the device’s fiber optic connectors with the dust caps when not in use to reduce the possibility of contamination.
Do not use the device or accessories that appear damaged. Inspect the device and accessories before use.
