7.11 Using the Light Source Function
The light source function allows use of the instrument as a light source, not as an OTDR.
This section explains how to use the instrument as a light source.
The instrument cannot be used as a light source if an optical module (AQ7261) is
installed.
The light source wavelength and modulation frequency that can be used vary with
the optical module installed.
They are shown below per available optical module.
For detail on output level, refer to Chapter 9.
I wonder if I could use the
instrument as a light source.
