Fiber Autotest Results
Once the Autotest is completed the Autotest screen will be displayed.
The arrows at the top of the screen indicate the direction of the light.
R points to the result measured from OMNIRemote to OMNI Scanner.
Q points out the result measured from OMNI Scanner to OMNI Remote.
The overall test result is located right below the
arrows, (PASS) or (FAIL).
The name of the Autotest is displayed at the top of
the screen followed by the name of the fiber.
When a bidirectional test was performed an icon for
OMNI Scanner or OMNI Remote will appear
next to the fiber‘s name.
Press or to view results for the fibers with light transmission
in the opposite direction. The arrows flip vertically to indicate that there are
two results for each fiber, one from TX to RX and one from RX to TX.
Note: OMNIFiber measures Length, Propagation Delay and Loss. The
values will be compared against the preprogrammed PASS/FAIL limits and
OMNIScanner will provide a PASS/FAIL indication for both fibers.
The Autotest Results screen displays the (Length) and the Loss
for each fiber, either at 850 and 1300 nm or at 1310 for single mode.
OMNIScanner displays the margin in the RESULTS screen. It is the worst
case margin for all wavelengths and all fibers. A positive margin indicates
that the measured loss was less than the PASS/FAIL value, a negative
margin indicates a fail and shows how much the measurement exceeded
the maximum allowable PASS/FAIL amount.
The number of Connectors and Splices is displayed at the bottom of the
screen (if applicable).
