OTDR Results
Notes
The tester shows measurements with “>” or “<“
when the actual value is possibly more or less than
the value shown. For example, this can occur for
hidden events or for measurements that are out of
the range of the tester.
When a test is completed, the type of screen the
tester shows first (EventMap, TABLE, or TRACE) is
the type you looked at last.
EventMap
The EventMap shows a diagram of the events on the fiber.
Figures 142 and 143 show examples of the EventMap. For more
information on events, see Table 14 on page 347.
Notes
The EventMap combines the results for all
wavelengths used for the test. If an event on the
EventMap does not show on the OTDR trace,
change the wavelength on the OTDR screen.
The EventMap does not show ghosts.
 The ID for the results. If Auto Save is off, Result not saved
shows.
 The end of the fiber.
