Setting Pass/Fail Thresholds

Setting Pass/Fail Thresholds

You can define five groups of thresholds to specify acceptable loss (in dB
and dB per distance unit) and ORL values (in dB) for each wavelength, for
both singlemode and multimode fibers.

Thresholds are supplied by system manufacturers and depend on the
system deployed.

Each time a measurement exceeds a threshold, the result is shown with a
red background and an exclamation mark in the table.

Note: When transferring results from handheld unit to computer, thresholds are

not transferred along with results. However, you can define thresholds in
the Optical Report Viewer application.
