  • Page 4: Overview

    Overview OptoTest’s OP760 Multichannel Optical Power Meter is a cost-effective solution for manufacturers or anyone requiring high channel counts and measurements. Available with up to 24 individual optical power meters, the OP760 builds on the established reputation of OptoTest’s OP710 Multichannel Optical Power Meter, offering enhancements including built-in USB and Ethernet communication, and simultaneous power measurements on all channels.
  • Page 5: Initial Preparation

    Initial Preparation Unpacking and Inspection The unit was carefully inspected, mechanically, electrically, and optically before shipment. When received, the shipping carton should contain the items listed in Standard Contents. Account for and inspect each item. In the event of a damaged instrument, write or call OptoTest Corp, California. Note: Be aware that accessories such as detector adapters, remote head detectors, and high- performance reference cables will be located inside a small box labeled “Accessories Inside”.

Prior to powering on the unit, verify that the appropriate power supply and power cord is connected.
  • Page 7: Definition Of Specifications

    Definition of Specifications Dynamic Range The dynamic range, or measurement range, of the optical power meter spans from the maximal power level the instrument can measure, without major saturation to the detector, to the minimal power level where the thermal noise of the detector becomes greater than the current produced by the incident light. For accurate power measurements, it is NOT recommended to measure power levels at either end of the dynamic range (see Linearity).
  • Page 8 Absolute Accuracy The absolute accuracy specification includes the total measurement uncertainties involved in the calibration process including the transfer of the absolute power standard from N.I.S.T. Contact OptoTest for the detailed chain of uncertainties. Optical Power Meter, Channel Performance For multichannel instruments, the power meter circuit converts and digitizes the optical power level with the given sampling interval.
  • Page 9: How To Navigate The User Interface

    How to Navigate the User Interface Mode Select Screen On the Mode Select screen, press the select operation modes for the unit, such as OPM, M.OPM, Settings, and Status. The up and down arrows on the left side of the screen will navigate the pages of mode screens.
  • Page 10: Operation Mode Screens

    Mode Select Screen Page 2 Allows certain settings—such as pass/fail criteria and measurement adjustment factors—to Settings be changed and saved on the unit. Status Shows current settings and system information. Operation Mode Screens When the unit is in one of its operation screens, the buttons will operate largely the same. Buttons on the second column will select options such as wavelength and channel switching.
  • Page 11 Note: In “Range Hold” one should not be operating at the high or low end of the range. This will increase the error of the measurement. The high-end range is displayed as a full yellow bar below the power measurement compared to an empty bar for low end range. OPM Screen (Page 1) OPM Screen (Page 2) OPM Screen Page 1 &...
  • Page 12: Multichannel Opm Mode

    Multichannel OPM Mode This mode is capable of measuring output power simultaneously up to 24 individual optical power meters. Each of the functions of a state-of-the-art optical power meter such as multiple wavelength calibrations, absolute mode (dBm), and relative mode (dB) are applied to all channels simultaneously.

    Returns to the Home Screen. Settings The Settings Mode is designed to allow the user to configure certain parameters for the unit including sampling rate, startup mode and temperature. Fast Sampling (OPM) Settings screen (page 1) Disable or enable fast sampling option The standard sampling rate is 20 samples per second via USB when fast sampling is disabled.
  • Page 14: Status Mode

    Startup Mode is a global setting which allows the operator to specify which Operation Mode to load each time the unit is powered on. Temperature Units setting allows the operator to specify whether they would prefer the unit to display the ambient temperature in Celsius or Fahrenheit.
