  6. 4. Keypad Connector housing cap Connector release Laser O/P level setting Power On/Off • AutoTest • Modulation Freq. & • Fibre ID number Wavelength toggle

  7. 5. Instrument Care • Keep the instrument in its carry case during storage and transport • • Use only high quality batteries. • • For prolonged storage remove batteries. • • The instrument is resistant to normal dust and moisture, however it is not waterproof. • If moisture gets into the instrument, remove batteries & dry it out carefully before using it again. • • Where possible, keep instrument away from strong sunlight. • • Clean the instrument case using Iso-Propyl-Alcohol (IPA) or other non solvent cleaning agents. • • DO NOT use Acetone or other active solvents as damage may result.

  8. 6. Operation • Fit batteries • Turn source on • Select / determine test cord configuration • Fit correct adaptor style to source • Cleanliness • Send light

  9. 6.1 Fit batteries • To Fit Batteries. • Press battery cover latch down and push away from case. • Insert 2 ‘AAA’ cells • Replace battery cover • Battery life. • Laser/LED source: 40/35 hours in Autotest, typical using Alkaline batteries. 25 hours typical in CW mode • Low Battery Display. • Indicator shows when batteries are low. • Warning. • Do not use lithium batteries, or other batteries with a nominal voltage greater than 1.8 V as the instrument may become damaged.

  10. 6.2 Power ‘On-Off’ To turn on Push the Aqua [On/Off] button • 10 minutes auto-off • Permanent operation • Low battery indicator • To Defeat auto time out. • Press [On/Off] & [HOLD] for several seconds. • Instrument will beep twice. • ‘on’ will display. • ‘Perm’ will display on the upper part of the LCD.

  11. 6.3 Determine type of test cord • SM APC connector instruments, green connector housing • SM PC connector instruments, blue connector housing • MM PC connector instruments, beige connector housing • Identify type of test cord and configuration required. E.g. SC-APC to ST-PC • Must match connector end face type, PC-PC or APC-APC connector. • Wrong end face type may damage instrument.

  12. 6.4 Fit connector • Once the required test cordage configuration is identified, a matching adaptor for the source can be selected.

  13. Standard Instruments • Supplied with :- SC connector as standard • Other connector styles include:- • ST, FC, LC, E2000, 2.5mm Universal , SMA , MU, D4, DIN • * Universal not recommended for sources

  14. To fit / change an adaptor / connector • Locate quick release button on front of instrument at base of connector housing • Push and hold button in • Pull out existing adaptor • Fit new adaptor Slot to outside

  15. 6.5 Cleanliness • Dust particles are similar in size to the core diameter of SM fibre. • Arguably most failures are due to connector and adaptor contamination! Failure to ensure optical connectors are clean will lead to incorrect measurement. • How can I tell if the connection is clean? • Inspect test cord connectors with optical microscope. • If clean insert into instrument. • Remove test cord and re-inspect. • If test cord connector is clean then the instrument connector and its adaptor is also clean.

  16. 7. Operating Modes • Select mode of operation • CW mode: • Source sends continuous light. • Autotest • Source alternates between wavelengths. • Test tone / Multi-fibre Identification number : • Source sends modulated light or a Fibre identification number. • Modulation 270, 1,000 and 2,000 Hz. • Multi-Fibre identifier number 1 ~ 12.

  17. 7.1 CW Mode • On Light Source press [λ] or [λ]. • Source displays, wavelength & nominal output power • and if active, test tone or Fibre ID • Toggle [λ] or [λ] to select another λ or to Turn-Off.

  18. 7.2 Autotest Mode • Start AutoTest • Press [AUTO] • LCD displays Auto • LCD displays ‘>>>’ indicating the active port. • LCD displays ‘Source On’, the word ‘on’ flashes • Data sent to far end includes : nominal output power, serial number & λ • A compliant Power Meter will automatically toggle between these λs • Stop Autotest: • Press [Auto] or turn instrument Off

  19. 7.3 Test tone / Multi-fibre Identification number • To send modulation: • Turn source on: • Press [MOD] • To scroll through test tones, ‘multi-fibre ID’ numbers or turn modulation off: • Press [MOD] . • Multi fibre ID feature – Firmware r0.05 and above. • Or......

  20. To toggle modulation Up or Down: • Press and hold [MOD], then press [λ] or [λ] • To set modulation Off: • Press and hold [MOD], then press and hold [λ] for 3 seconds. • To set modulation to ID012: • Press and hold [MOD], then press and hold [λ] for 3 seconds.

  21. 8. Additional Features Output Level Adjust Adjusting the relative laser powers of a multi wavelength source enables the user to match the source to a power meter such that the power meter reads the same as the source wavelength is changed. Why Use O/P Power Adjust? Consider a remote referencing situation the REMOTE power meter is not calibrated at one of the wavelengths. Multi wavelength testing can be performed without altering the power meter’s wavelength setting. TamperLock Locks source to a user selected wavelength. Requires user defined keystroke to activate or de-activate.

  22. 8.1 Output Power Adjust • Toggle power out: • Select required λ. • Press [LEVEL] to decrease O/P power, • or to toggle up or down. • Press & hold [LEVEL] then press [λ] or [λ] • To set max O/P power:- • Press & hold [LEVEL] , press & hold [λ] for 3 seconds. • To set min O/P power:- • Press & hold [LEVEL] , press & hold [λ] for 3 seconds. • Note: • Applicable to laser sources only • 0.1 dB steps over 3dB range. • Meter beeps at each change • Resets to factory default at power Off

  23. 8.2 TamperLock • To Activate: • Set source to desired λ • Press and hold [λ] while pressing [LEVEL] for 5 seconds. • Instrument will beep 5 times & display will show ‘codE’ • Enter a 6 key sequence using any keys except [POWER]. • A triple beep and “LOut” on display will indicate completion. • record keystroke sequence for future use. • To cancel TamperLock setup, press [POWER]. • When active • ‘<<<‘ and ‘>>>’ displayed • To clear: • Press and hold[λ] & [LEVEL] whilst turning power On. • ‘codE’ will display , enter the 6 key code sequence. • If successful, “PASS” will be displayed indicating TamperLock cleared. • If incorrect sequence entered, “FAIL x” will be displayed (where x is attempt count). • Alternatively, TamperLock will be cleared after 3 unsuccessful attempts.
