Autotest in Smart Remote Mode
Use Smart Remote mode to do tests on dual-fiber cabling.
In this mode, the tester measures loss and length on two fibers at
two wavelengths. If you turn on the Bi-Directional function and
swap the fibers halfway through the test, the tester makes
measurements in both directions.
Figure 110 shows the equipment for tests in Smart Remote mode.
Fiber Tests with Two Main Testers
If you have two main testers, you can use one as a remote tester
for tests in Smart Remote mode. This also lets you use
FiberInspector video probes at both ends of the cabling for faster
inspections of fiber endfaces.
To use a main tester as a remote
Tap TOOLS then tap Main as Remote.
Step 1: Set the Reference in Smart Remote Mode
