FAULT FINDER
Introduction
The Fault Finder is a pocket-sized instrument for finding problems in fiber cabling.
It uses a stabilized, high-output 635-nm laser diode that runs up to 24 hours in
continuous mode, or 48 hours in blink mode, from two AA alkaline batteries.
The Fault Finder can clearly locate breaks and bending losses in optical fibers up
to 3 km in length. A rotary switch on the instrument lets you select between
continuous wave (CW) and a blink (MOD) mode that increases viewing contrast,
or switch the instrument off with one hand. A universal "quick connect" output
port enables convenient temporary coupling with all 2.5-mm fiberoptic connectors.
The instrument can also be used with optional Fault Finder ST, SC, or FC snap-on
connector adapters, which permit secure coupling with these industry-standard
fiber optic interfaces.
When you order the Fault Finder, you'll receive the unit, a nylon carrying pouch,
this instruction manual, and (2) 1.5-volt alkaline batteries. There are also optional
ST, SC, and FC adapters for the Fault Finder available separately.
