Tutorial: Do a Bi-Directional OTDR Test

Step 7: Look at the Results from End 1

The tester shows the OTDR results in three formats (Figure 18):

 EventMap: Shows a diagram of the events on the fiber, the

fiber length, and the overall loss of the fiber.

Use this screen to quickly locate connecto

rs and faults on the

fiber. To see details for an event, tap the event on the map, then

tap the information window for the event.

 TABLE: Shows a table of the events on the fiber.

Use this screen to quickly see measurements for all events and

see th

e types of events that are on the fiber. The table includes

the distance to the event, the loss of the event, the size of the

reflection from the event, the type of the event, and a pass/fail

status. To see details for an event, tap the event in the table.

 TRACE: Shows the OTDR trace.

Use this screen to examine events and make other

measurements.
