Models with -SPM or -HPM suffix codes can share project information. Sending a Project You can send project information from the master to the slave. First, you must specify a fiber for communicating the project information from the master to the slave. Before you transfer the project information, connect one end of the communication fiber that you specified to the master’s light source port, and connect the other end to the slave’s optical power measurement port. • Prepare the slave to receive the project information. • After you have confirmed that the slave is ready to receive the information, send it from the master. Loading a Project File Load the same project file onto the master and the slave. Use a project file that you have saved to internal or USB memory.
