Page 3 To calculate the talkset’s maximum communication distance: D = R / A where: D = talkset distance R = dynamic range (Laser HOOTS = 20 dB) A= typical fiber attenuation at specified 8 Example (8 = 1310nm, R = 20 dB, A = 0.5 dB/km): D = 20 dB / (0.5 dB/km) = 40 km...
Page 4 Battery Replacement. The battery compartment is covered by a sliding plate on the back of the unit. One 9v battery is required for operation. Cleaning. For accurate readings, the optical connectors on the Laser HOOTS and the connectors on the patch cords should be cleaned prior to attaching them to one another. Minimize dust and dirt buildup by replacing the dust caps after each use.
