Luna 6415 3 System Overview The Luna 6415 provides users with the ability to make high resolution insertion loss and return loss measurements of optical devices in both reflection and transmission. These measurements can be viewed in both the delay and spectral domains for improved visibility in characterizing and screening optical components and networks.

Luna 6415 Transmission Mode The 6415 can be swapped to transmission mode using the dropdown menu located in the upper left corner of the screen. The system will configure itself for transmission measurements and then you will be able to use the same three plot types to interpret the transmission data.
7 Maintenance and Cleaning Optical Connector Cleaning Materials It is extremely important to clean connectors before attaching optical fibers to the Luna 6415 for testing. Failure to do so may result in noisy data or damaged equipment. Optical fiber connectors on cables should be cleaned before every connection to the Luna 6415. The bulkhead connectors on the front panel should be cleaned frequently, roughly once every 25 connections.
1. Turn off the Luna 6415. 2. Make sure that no devices are connected to the Luna 6415. 3. Open the protective cover on the front panel. 4. Gently insert one of the supplied cleaning sticks, as shown below.
4. Remove the air filter and clean with running water. Allow the filter to dry before reassembly. 5. Insert the air filter back into the space between the top and bottom panels. 6. Replace the side panel and secure using four screws. Luna 6415 Setup Guide Page 16...
2. Place the blade of a screwdriver or similar tool in the slot at the bottom of the fuse drawer, then gently pry the drawer out of the power module. Figure 7-8 - Remove Fuse Drawer Luna 6415 Setup Guide Page 17...
