Viewing Trace Information
Viewing Trace Information
Once your acquisition is complete, you can view the details about it in the
Trace Info. tab. This information can be useful for future reference, or to
perform other tests. For example, if you have performed a quick check on
a link, you can now use the distance value calculated by the OTDR to put in
a standard or advanced acquisition for the distance range value.
From the Trace Info. tab, you can also change the cable and job
information, reanalyze a trace and change the spatial smoothing filter.
Note: You can find more information about the spatial smoothing filter in Setting
up General Acquisition Parameters on page 21 and Use an Appropriate
Spatial Smoothing Filter Value on page 129.

Reanalyzing a trace or changing the spatial smoothing filter will
delete the current estimation table, all of the comments you may
have added, as well as the modifications and estimations you have
performed in the section table. If you want to retain this
information for further use, you must save it before reanalyzing the
trace.
