Performance Verification Tests - Kingfisher KI 9600A-Ge Operation & Maintenance Manual

PERFORMANCE VERIFICATION TESTS

The tests procedures described in this section are for performance
verification of a KI9600-InGaAs Optical Power Meter and KI9822
Optical Light Source.
It is not possible to give detailed test procedures for all instrument
options, so some parameters may need adjusting to the appropriate
specifications.
Required Equipment: this is the required equipment for the
performance tests listed. Any equipment that satisfies the critical
specifications of the equipment given in the table may be substituted
for the recommended models.
Test Record: results of the performance test may be tabulated on a
photocopy of the Test Record provided at the end of the test
procedure. It is recommended that you fill out the Test Record and
refer to it while doing the test. Alternatively, a soft copy of this manual
may be obtained from our web site.
Test Failure: if the equipment under test fails any performance test,
return the instrument to the nearest Sales/Service Office for repair.
Instrument Specification: specifications are the performance
characteristics of the instrument that are certified, and are the limits
against which the equipment under test can be tested.

Any changes in the specifications due to manufacturing changes,
design, or traceability to NATA, will be covered in a manual change
supplement, or revised manual. Such specifications supersede any
previously published.
General Instructions
Perform each step in the order given, using the corresponding test
equipment. Use Tables 1 ~ 3 to record general test details.
The SMF / MMF test lead fiber type and PC / APC connector polish
must be matched to the instrument type.
Ensure that all optical connections are dry and clean. DO NOT USE
INDEX MATCHING OIL. For cleaning, use the cleaning instructions
given in the section 'Optical Connector'.
Make sure that all patch cords are fixed to the table to avoid
movements during measurements.
Ensure that the ambient conditions are in the following ranges:
Temperature: 21 ± 3 ºC
Relative humidity: 45 to 75 %
