Event Table Field Description
# Event Number:
Indicates the event in sequence, where the higher the number the further distance from the OTDR the event occurs. The last two
events in the list are special. The first, which indicates a "type" of “End" is the determined end of the fiber under test. The last
row is with the type "Link" includes data that is relevant to the entire system link (full fiber under test).
"P" or "F" (Pass or Fail):
If any threshold is not met for an event, the P/F column will display an "F" (Fail) and the parameter that failed will appear in red. If
all parameters are met, the column will display a "P" (Pass). There is no Pass/Fail threshold in the event labeled "End". Pass/Fail
in the "Link" row includes the 2-POINT column, representing the total link loss, and the TYPE column representing the system
ORL.
Km or KF or MI:
Event Location (Distance from OTDR) is labeled "Km" for kilometer, "KF" for kilo-feet, and "MI" for mile. The measurement is the
distance/location where the event occurs along the fiber link. This data should be the same for th End of FIber and Link.
