The Power Meter function reports the overall received power. Use it to quickly verify and correct cabling and equipment problems.
The Power Meter screen shows the currently selected wavelength and light source mode.
The overall power is displayed.
OMNIFiber is designed to provide a consistent, calibrated light source for effectively measuring signal loss in fiberoptic cables. The transmitted light can be operated continuously or modulated.
When testing loss, use the continuous light source. When identifying fiber cables with a tone locator, use the 2 kHz modulated mode.
Press (Continuous) or (Modulated) to change the light source.
Press or to change the wavelength of the OMNIFiber main transmitted and received wavelengths. Either main or remote can be used as the light source with the main power meter.
