Event
END
The end of the cabling.

Sorting Events

You can sort the event table in ascending or descending
order by the items in a column. For example, you could
sort by the loss values in a wavelength column to put the
events with the highest loss at the top of the table. By
default, the table is sorted in ascending order by event
location. The table returns to this order when you exit
the EVENT TABLE screen.
To sort the event table, use
B
heading; then press Sort Field. Pressing
sorts the table in the opposite order.
Table 3-4. Event Types (cont.)
The tester identifies the end of the cabling as the point where the backscatter stops.
The tester does not measure the loss of END events. Note that a very high-loss event,
such as a sharp bend, can appear to be the end of the cabling.
