To avoid damaging the tester or cables under test,
to avoid data loss, and to ensure maximum
accuracy of test results:
•
Turn off the tester before attaching or removing
modules.
•
Leave the module bay covers in place when the
fiber modules are not installed.
•
When using the fiber modules, use proper
cleaning procedures to clean all fiber connectors
before every use. Neglecting this step or using
improper procedures can cause unreliable test
results and may permanently damage the
connectors. See page 7-9.
•
Cover all connectors with dust caps when not in
use.
•
Store extra connector adapters for the fiber
module in the canisters provided.
•
Do not touch the photodiode lens (see page 7-7).
•
Do not overtighten the adapter or use tools to
tighten the adapter.
•
Use a Fluke Networks FiberInspector Video
Microscope to periodically inspect the fiber
module’s OUTPUT connector for scratches and
other damage.
