12.2 Calibration and Verification
Periodic verification of the NT2-210018 is recommended to ensure your instrument remains within specification.
Although not imperative, we recommend a calibration and verification once a year to make certain the instrument
is functioning properly and performing to its rated specifications. Consult the factory for service.
12.3 NT2-210018 Adapter Replacement
The NT2-210018 is supplied with two easily interchangeable adapters per port, SC/FC. To change an adapter,
remove the two screws that hold the adapter in place, pull the adapter straight up from ferrule. It is suggested you
clean the exposed ferrule with appropriate cleanser and a lint-free wipe any time you replace the ferrule.
Note
In order to maintain a low loss fiber connection, care should be taken to adequately clean the ferrule of any
connector to be connected to the OSA. In the event that the port needs to be cleaned, the first step is to be
certain the instrument is off. We suggest the use of isopropyl alcohol and foam swabs specifically designed
for cleaning connectors accepting 2.5mm ferrules.
When replacing the adapter with one that does not have a chained protective cap, use the small screw in
place of the larger screw that retains the end of the chain to the adapter base.
