With the aid of a user-friendly software wizard, the firmware opens a project folder in a selected destination, which can be internal or external memory. Measurement settings are selected in a familiar menu¸ and are applied to all fibres in the cable. The measurement results are then saved to this location, and the operator can recall an overview of the chosen measurement settings on a single screen.
The complete fibre bundle is managed by using a matrix table, which allows selection of specific fibres that need to be skipped. For each fibre and for each wavelength, the OTDR trace needs to be confirmed. A check mark is placed behind the wavelength of the confirmed trace. After all wavelengths have been approved, a check mark will appear in the matrix table.
