Make A Custom Fiber Type - Fluke Versiv Series Technical Reference Handbook

When you disable pairs, the overall test result can
be PASS when some enabled pairs do not comply
with the selected test limit. For example, if you
disable pair 4,5, the NEXT test results will not
show how crosstalk from the other pairs would
affect pair 4,5. Thus, other pairs could possibly not
be fully compliant with the test limit.

Make a Custom Fiber Type

If a fiber installation has a fiber type that is not in the list of types
in the tester, you can make a custom fiber type for the job. A
custom fiber type has these settings:
 Custom fiber name
Category of fiber (OM categories for multimode, OS

categories for singlemode)
IOR (index of refraction)

Backscatter value for fiber types for OTDR tests

Use the values specified by the fiber manufacturer to make the
custom fiber type.
You can make up to 20 custom fiber types. The tester keeps
custom fiber types with the other fiber types in the main tester
(not in the module). The names of custom fiber types have an
asterisk (*) at the start and end.
