Enabling Auto- mode
Auto  is a special feature developed by Viavi that allows you to
identify wavelengths automatically. To do this, the signal is
modulated at a certain frequency (by a light source equipped
with Auto ), which can be detected by a Viavi OLP-87/OLP-87P.
In Auto  mode, the detected wavelength is included in the
 table. As long as the detected wavelength is active, it cannot
be deleted from the  table.
Wavelengths cannot be reliably detected if:
• the receive level is too low,
• wavelength encoding cannot be detected due to interference,
• you are measuring the absolute level of a system that does not
have wavelength encoding matching Viavi power sources.
To switch Auto  mode on/off:
The instrument is in Powermeter mode.
