6 Saving and Recalling

Power/Loss Values

You can save 1000 power/loss values in your unit, along with references. You will
save and recall this data according to cable names and fiber numbers. To free up
memory, you can transfer saved data to a computer or simply delete all.

Setting Autonaming Scheme

When saving data, the unit suggests fiber IDs based on autonaming settings. After
saving a value, the unit prepares the next fiber ID according to the selected
increment (0, 1 or 2).

To define the cable name and the starting fiber ID and increment value:
1.
From normal operating mode, press

repeatedly until you reach DATA.

2. Press

to access CAB1 or the last cable name

edited.

3. Hold down

until the first character of the cable

name blinks.

4. Select a character to change by pressing

until it blinks, then increase its

value by pressing

(it returns to 0 after Z).

5. While a digit blinks, hold down

a few seconds to save the modified value

(it remains in memory even when you turn off the unit) or press

to return

to the previous value without saving.

6. Press

twice to exit setup menus.
