Caution
If you disconnected the test reference cord from the
output of the tester, you must set the reference
again to make sure your measurements are reliable.
3-1 On the SET REFERENCE screen, when the set reference or
TRC verification procedure is completed, tap NEXT to see
how to connect to the fiber under test.
3-2 Clean and inspect the connectors on the fiber under test.
3-3 Make the connections to do the test on the fiber, as shown on
the screen and in Figure 86, then tap HOME.
3-4 Tap TEST on the main tester or press  on the main or
remote tester.
If the CHECK FIBER CONNECTIONS screen shows an open
fiber:
 Make sure that all connections are good and no fibers
have damage. Use the VFL to make sure the fiber under
test has continuity.
 If you are connected to fibers at a patch panel that are
connected together at the far end, and you are not sure
you are connected to the correct fibers, connect the
main tester’s INPUT fiber to different connections until
the test continues.
3-5 If Bi-Directional is On: Halfway through the test, the tester
tells you to switch the input and output fibers. See “Bi-
Directional Tests” on page 206.
3-6 If Auto Save is on, the tester uses the next ID to save the
results.
If Auto Save is off, the SAVE RESULT screen shows the next
ID available. You can change the ID if necessary.
