If the Test Limit or Fiber Type is Not Valid with the
Test
•
The fiber type was changed on the Cable tab in
Setup, and the current test limit does not include the
fiber type. Select a different test limit.
•
The fiber type or test limit is missing a wavelength
the test uses. For example, you are trying to run a
dual-wavelength OTDR test, but the fiber type or
limit does not include both wavelengths. Select a
different fiber type or test limit.
•
The installed module does not support the selected
fiber type or test limit. For example, a singlemode
2-8
fiber type is selected, but a multimode module is
installed. Select a different fiber type or test limit or
install a different module.
•
The test limit does not include parameters for the
type of test you are trying to run. For example, you
are trying to run an OTDR test, but only loss/length
limits are defined in the selected test limit. Select a
test limit that includes limits for the test you want to
run.
If you selected a custom fiber type or limit, you could also
edit the fiber type or limit to make it valid with the test.
