Source Settings and Features
1. Touch to enable/disable light source. RED dot indicates that source is ON.
2. Touch to select test mode: Wave ID, CW, Tone (270 Hz, 330 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz).
– Select Wave ID mode for fastest loss measurements.
While in this mode, the FlexScan source transmits wavelength information, enabling a Wave ID power meter
to synchronize and measure power at received wavelength(s).
– Use CW mode to generate continuous wave light at a single wavelength.
– Generate Tone for ber identication (270 Hz, 330 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz).
3. Touch to select test wavelength: 1310, 1550 or 1650 nm (depending on model).
Power Meter Settings and Features
4. If used with non Wave ID source, touch to
select wavelength. If used with Wave ID source,
power meter automatically synchronizes to and
indicates received wavelength(s).
5. Hold to store new reference(s) at received
wavelength(s). Touch Ref/Set to view stored
reference(s).
6. Touch to toggle between power (in dBm or
Watts) and loss (dB) mode.
Note: Power meter detects and indicates ber
identifying tones when used with a light source
capable of generating a modulated Tone signal.
