Modulated mode has two functions. First, modulated signals can be used for fiber identification with a clamp- on adapter. Also, when used with Fiber OWL, Micro OWL, or WaveTester optical power meters, the modulated signal is used to tell the meter which wavelength is being emitted. Each wavelength has a distinct modulation frequency.
2.0 FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTIONS 2.0.1 CONNECTIONS Port A - Houses either a multimode 850/1300nm dual- wavelength source or 650nm VFL. USB Charger Port - Allows for charging internal Lithium Polymer battery. Port B - Houses either a singlemode 1310/1550nm dual- wavelength source or 650nm VFL. 2.0.2 INDICATOR LEDS Port A Indicator LED - This LED will either be GREEN...
3.0 APPLICATIONS 3.1 PRECAUTIONS 3.1.1 Safety - Exercise caution when working with optical equipment. Most transmission equipment and light sources use light that is invisible to the human eye. High energy light is potentially dangerous, and can cause serious, irreparable damage to the eye. Thus, it is recommended to NEVER look into the connector port of a light source or the end of a fiber.
