The fiber under test must have only one wavelength. If there are several
wavelengths, the measurement results will NOT be valid.
To change the wavelength, press the
|F1| (WAVE)
button. The resulting calibrated wavelength
list is then shown below.
Selecting a wavelength for PM measurement
Select a wavelength by pressing the
|Up|
and
|Down|
buttons, then press the
|Shift/Enter|
button to confirm the choice. The new wavelength then appears in the top right corner of the
display. For the previous wavelength to remain effective, select a wavelength and then press
the
|F1| (EXIT)
button.
If the fiber under test carries a signal with WaveID details, select
[ AUTO ]
. Then, the FX80
determines the wavelength automatically.
If the [ AUTO ] option for a signal without WaveID or modulated is
selected
, the λ value goes blank and the measurement results are NOT
valid.

Setting Power Reference Level
To measure the fiber under test span loss, first set a reference level for each test wavelength.
Set the reference level by pressing the
|F3| (OPTION)
button.
