Connecting the Probe and Attaching an
Adapter Tip
Some adapter tips have small screws that slide into a
slot on the probe end. Do not adjust this screw.

Connect the cable from the fiber probe's conversion box to
one of the OptiView analyzer's USB ports (Figure 1). If this is
the first time using FiberInspector, the "Found New

loads the FiberInspector driver for you.
2
Connect the fiber probe to the conversion box.
3
Screw an adapter tip that matches the cable type being
inspected onto the fiber probe.
