How to Make a Custom Fiber Test Limit
Custom limits let you enter minimum and maximum values for
tests you do with CertiFiber Pro OLTS and OptiFiber Pro OTDR
modules. This lets you use customer requirements to pass or fail
fiber links or components such as patch cords and connectors. For
OLTS tests, you can also select a fixed loss budget or a loss budget
that the tester calculates based on the length of the link.
You can make up to 20 custom test limits for fiber cable. The
tester keeps custom limits with the other limits in the main Versiv
unit (not in the module). The names of custom limits have an
asterisk (*) at the start and end.

On the home screen, tap the test setup panel.

Note
You must select a test before you make a custom
test limit, but you can use the limit in any test that
has the fiber types that the limit supports.

On the TEST SETUP screen, tap Test Limit, tap MORE, tap
Custom, then tap MANAGE.

NEW CUSTOM LIMIT screen. The tester adds an asterisk (*) to
the start and end of the custom fiber limit name.
