About Auto-
mode
When in one of the Auto-
modes, the OLT-85/OLT-85P embeds
wavelength ID information into the emitted signal(s). This
wavelength ID information can be utilized by a compatible Viavi
power meter (e.g. OLP-85) for automatic wavelength setup and
for simultaneous reception of multiple wavelengths.
The OLT-85/OLT-85P provides two Auto-
modes:
•
Multi-
: Multi-
is a proprietary Viavi solution that reduces
testing time to a minimum by simultaneously testing at both
wavelengths. When activated both wavelength are measured
and displayed simultaneously.
Auto-
-Multi should be selected every time the optical
powermeter supports the Auto-
-Multi feature.
•
Serial-
automatically toggles between the selected
wavelengths. Combined with a compatible power meter (e.g.
OLP-3x, OLP-85), the power meter automatically sets up with
correct wavelength settings.
Serial-
should be selected when low levels are expected on
the optical power meter or when the power meter doesn't
support Multi-
.
