2. Set the optical power meter to 1310 nm.
3. On Light Source, enable the source and set the wavelength to
1310 nm.
4. Let the unit warm-up for 15 minutes then note the power.
5. Record the power every 30 seconds for 3 minutes.
6. Calculate max-min values for stability (< 0.1dB).
7. Record test results in Table 5.
