Bi-directional Tests with Span Settings
When you use span settings with a bi-directional test:
• If you want the span to include the same section of fiber from
both ends, be sure to change the span settings when you do
the test from the other end. For example, a fiber is 300 m
long, and the Span Start and Span Stop are 0 m and 100 m for
End 1. To get results for the same section of fiber from End 2,
set the Span Start and Span Stop to 200 m and 300 m.
• If you define a span, then do a bi-directional test on a fiber,
you can see the results from both ends of the fiber, but the
tester does not calculate averaged bi-directional results. See
