Autotest; Set The Loss Budget - Black Box Fiber Meter Manual

FIBER METER
Certification of duplex multimode cable requires use of
both Fiber Meter handsets. One handset is the Main
Unit. It controls all of the testing and stores the test
results. The other handset is the Remote Unit.
The roles of the two Fiber Meter handsets can be reversed
to use the report storage capability of both handsets.
An Autotest requires you to perform the following steps:
• Set the loss budget (see Section 5.1).
• Set the reference power (see Section 5.2).
• Run Autotest (see Sections 5.3 through 5.8).
