How to Do a Bi-directional SmartLoop Test
Set up the launch compensation function
1 On the home screen, tap the test setup panel, make sure the
correct SmartLoop test is selected on the CHANGE TEST screen,
then tap EDIT.
If an Auto SmartLoop test is not available, tap NEW TEST to add
one to the project. Select settings as necessary on the TEST SETUP
screen. See “Settings for HDR OTDR Tests” on page 255.
2 On the TEST SETUP screen, in the Bi-directional panel, tap the
control to make it show On, then tap SAVE.
3 On the CHANGE TEST screen, tap USE SELECTED.
4 Select three launch cords that have the same type of fiber as
the fiber you will test.
5 On the home screen, tap SET COMP.
6 On the SET LAUNCH METHOD screen tap SmartLoop.
7 Clean and inspect the OTDR port and connectors on the three
launch cords.
8 Make the connections shown in Figure 110 on page 289.
9 Tap SET.
10 When the SET LAUNCH COMP screen shows, make sure the
tester shows the correct distances for the end of the launch
cord and the start of the tail cord.
Note
If the fibers have APC connectors, the tester
possibly will not find the correct launch and tail
events. If this occurs, do the compensation again
and select Manual Entry to enter the lengths of the
cords manually.
11 Tap SAVE.
