Table 11. Settings for Fiber Tests (continued)

IOR: The tester uses the index of refraction to calculate

the optical length of the fiber. Each fiber type includes

the value specified by the manufacturer. To use a

, make a custom fiber type. See Chapter 19.

Select the correct test limit for the job. To see a different

group of limits, tap MORE, then tap the name of a

group. To make a custom limit, tap Custom in the Limit

Groups list. See Chapter 19

The TEST LIMIT screens show only the limits that

are compatible with the selected fiber type.

On the No. of Connectors/Splices screen, set the number

of jumpers you will use in each fiber path when you set

the reference. The dotted lines in the diagram on the

screen show you which parts of the link are included in

the test results.

The number of jumpers you use has these effects on loss

measurements:

1 Jumper: Loss measurements include the connections at

both ends of the link. The figures in this manual show 1

Jumper connections.

2 Jumper: Loss measurements include one connection at

one end of the link.

3 Jumper: Loss measurements do not include the

connections at the ends of the link. The tester measures

only the loss of the fiber.

This setting does not change the loss measurements, but

it can change the PASS/FAIL result for test limits that use

a calculated loss limit. For all test limits, the tester saves

this setting to show the reference method you used.
