Using the Optional Power Meters and VFL

Power Meter and VFL 11

Measuring Power or Insertion Loss

To perform power or insertion loss measurements manually:

1. If necessary, perform an offset nulling (see Nulling Offsets on page 4).

2. Check your fibers and clean them properly.

3. For insertion loss measurements, reference your power meter to a light

source (see Setting Reference Values on Your Power Meter on page 9),

then deactivate the light source.

4. If you have used a single reference patchcord, disconnect it from the

power meter port only, then attach a second reference patchcord to

the power meter.

If you have used two reference patchcords, disconnect both of them at

the bulkhead.
