Setting Up an Autotest

4Select the fiber construction that is appropriate and press Next.

5Enter either the nominal velocity of propagation (NVP) of the fiber cable, OR the fiber cable’s refractive index (default values are presented) and press Next. If you do not know either value, but have a known length of cable, select Calculate NVP from length and select the Test Configuration and press Next.

6If you are calculating NVP from length, enter the fiber length. You may have to calibrate the tester in the test configuration you have specified, using appropriate test jumpers. There is a Quick Setup button for specifying the test configuration and fiber construction for the NVP measurement. When the proper connection has been made, a Measure button will appear. Press Measure and the NVP as a percentage of the speed of light will be entered in to NVP window. When completed, press Next.
