Overview The Mp-series Optical power Meter (OpM) is a small form- factor device that measures optical power via a USB 2.0 connection to a PC/laptop. This unique device is used in conjunction with FiberChekPRO software, allowing the user to take stand alone Optical Power Measurements and also integrate the measurements with fiber inspection and certification.
Software features FiberChekPRO integrates OPM functionality with fiber end face inspection, analysis and archiving. Using this program for inspection also requires a JDSU digital microscope. Further information on the fiber inspection and analysis capabilities can be found in the FiberChekPRO user manual. This manual primarily focuses on the functions associated with the MP-series hardware and the USB Power Meter.

Software controls for OpM The Optical Power Meter menu allows you to configure options when using a USB- enabled JDSU OPM, such as the FI-series or MP-series. • Checking the box next to link OpM readings with fiber analysis allows you to associate power meter readings with a fiber analysis (see pg 10 for more details).
controls The power reading is displayed below the device drop- down menu. Users can select the measurement type (dBm, dB, mW) and wavelength (780, 820, 980, 1300, 1310, 1480, 1490, 1550, 1625 nm) from the blue drop-down menus. The ref button allows users to measure a relative power (attenuation) in a link loss test, which is measured in dB.

The StOre button allows the user to capture the reading and comments in an .CSV log. The log location can be specified in the Setup/Optical Power Meter menu. The Notes field allows you to add comments about the stored reading. NOTE: You can also log by briefly pressing the button on the USB OPM device.
