5.1 Connecting to Fiber Optic Cables
Imatge: The Acogedor DXP-20B Fiber Optic Power Meter demonstrating its 2.5mm standard interface, compatible with SC, FC, and ST connectors. An SC Square Head adapter is also shown.
- Ensure the fiber optic cable connector is clean. Use a fiber optic cleaning tool if necessary.
- Insert the fiber optic connector (FC, SC, or ST) into the 2.5mm standard interface receiver port at the top of the power meter. Ensure a snug fit.
5.2 Selecting Wavelength
Imatge: The Acogedor DXP-20B Fiber Optic Power Meter with a visual representation of the 7 supported test wavelengths: 850nm, 980nm, 1300nm, 1310nm, 1490nm, 1550nm, and 1625nm.
Premeu el botó Λ Button repeatedly to cycle through the available wavelengths (850nm, 980nm, 1300nm, 1310nm, 1490nm, 1550nm, 1625nm). Select the wavelength that matches the optical signal you are measuring.
5.3 Prendre una mesura
- Connect the fiber optic cable to the receiver port.
- Select the correct wavelength using the Λ Button.
- The optical power measurement will be displayed on the LCD screen in dBm or dB/W.
- Premeu el botó Botó dB to switch between dBm and dB/W units if desired.
5.4 Using the ZERO Function
El Botó ZERO allows you to set a reference power level. This is useful for relative power measurements (e.g., measuring loss). To use:
- Connect a known good fiber optic signal to the power meter.
- Premeu el botó Botó ZERO. The display will show '0.00dB' or similar, indicating the current power level is now the reference.
- Any subsequent measurements will be displayed relative to this reference.
5.5 Backlight and Auto-Off
- Premeu el botó Botó LLUM to turn the display backlight ON or OFF.
- Premeu el botó AUTO OFF Button to activate or deactivate the automatic shutdown feature, which conserves battery life.
