Learning the NVP of a Fiber
To learn the NVP of a fiber cable sample:
1
Connect a known length sample of the fiber to the Fiber SmartProbe.
The sample must be at least 50 feet (15 meters) long.
2
On the Fiber Tools menu, press Learn Fiber NVP. The Learn Fiber
NVP screen displays. Use the Quick Setup to help configure the cable
for single ended or double ended test configuration and to provide
fiber construction details prior to the test. You may need to calibrate
using the test jumper depending on which test configuration you
choose. If you need to calibrate, use the Calibration tool on the Main
Menu.

Enter the length of the sample fiber, and press OK to close the
keyboard. Make sure to use the correct length units (feet or meters.)
