CSA7404B, TDS7704B, TDS7404B, TDS7254B & TDS7154B Service Manual
H Move the optical fiber from the optical power meter to the optical
input of the CSA Instrument.
b. Initialize the instrument: Press the DE FAULT SETUP button.
c. Modify the initialized front-panel control settings:
H From the tool bar, touch Meas and select the Ampl tab.
H Touch Mean.
H From the tool bar, touch Horiz and select the Acquisition tab.
H Touch Average and set the number of averages to 64.
H Touch the Close button.
H Set the Vertical SCAL E to 20 mV per division.
H Set the Horizontal SCALE to 200 s.

Accuracy limits
780 nm 20 mV 0.1 mW (--10 dBm) ≥27 mV
850 nm 20 mV 0.1 mW (--10 dBm) ≥33 mV
1310 nm 50 mV 0.1 mW (--10 dBm ) ≥64 mV
1550 nm 50 mV 0.1 mW (--10 dBm ) ≥64 mV
2. Confirm O/E Gain is w ithin limits: Do the following substeps — test the
first wavelength setting in Table 4--15 first, skipping substep a since 780 nm
is already selected from step 1.
a. Select and unchecked wavelength from Table 4--15.
H Move the optical fiber from optical input of the the CSA Instrument
to the optical power meter.
H Set the CW laser source to wavelength not yet checked from
Table 4--15.
H Set the Vertical SCAL E to the setting in Table 4--15 for the selected
wavelength.
H Set the multimode optical attenuator for 0.1 mW out of the optical
power meter.
