Chapter 9: Use the OTDR Span and
Event Editing Functions
Overview of Features
The span and event editing functions are available in the
OptiFiber Pro and OptiFiber Pro HDR modules:
• The span function lets you limit OTDR results to a section of
fiber that you define.
• The event editing function lets you edit loss events.
How to Edit a Loss Event
When you know that a Loss event is an APC connector, you can
tap in the event’s information window, then use the Change
Event Type menu to change the event’s type to APC Connector.
See Figure 115. You can also change an edited event back to a
Loss event.
Note
When you edit an event, the test result does not
show that you made a change.
When you use a test limit for the OptiFiber Pro
module: If you change a Loss event to an APC
Connector, the tester uses 0.75 dB as the loss limit
for the connector. That is a standard loss limit for
connectors in inside-plant applications. If you
must use a different limit for APC connectors,
make a custom test limit.
