FIBER OneShot Users Manual How to Use the Meter Notes Always use patch cords that comply with GR-326-CORE specifications. Other patch cords can cause unreliable measurements. Do not use the meter to measure fibers that have PC connectors. PC connectors cause large reflections that the meter shows as the end of the fiber.

FIBER OneShot Users Manual Measurement Results The meter measures the length of the fiber. The length can be the distance to an APC or UPC connector at the end of the fiber or the distance to a break. If there is a large reflective event before the end of the fiber (larger than the dB LIMIT setting) the meter shows the distance to that event.
