Length Commands

The Length property of the remote client object returns a length object
with methods and properties to control the measurement of fiber length.
Sets and reads the IndexOfRefraction for use with length measurements
when Mode = Measure. The length of the test device is based on
specialized group delay measurements and a user-defined refractive index
value. This feature is intended for fiber and cable test applications.
Property Value
Double
Related Command
Length.ValidIndexOfRefraction method
VB.NET Syntax
odaClient.Length.IndexOfRefraction = 1.50
VB 6.0 Syntax
odaClient.Length.IndexOfRefraction = 1.50
Determines if the ODA should use the user-specified value for length or
the measured value.
