Selecting a Reference Trace

Selecting a Reference Trace

In Template OTDR mode, you can only select a file as a reference trace.
This operation is closely related to opening a trace file. All the traces, will
be displayed using the zoom and markers settings saved along with the
reference trace file (see Opening Trace Files on page 159).

Note: The following procedure will be useful if you did not select a reference

trace file when the Open Reference Trace File dialog box appeared during
the activation of Template OTDR mode or if you want to use another
reference trace.

To select a reference trace:
1.
From the Main Menu window, press Storage, then Open Reference.

2. If necessary, select the storage location from where you want to open

the file.

3. Select the file to be used as a reference and press OK.

The application opens the selected trace file automatically.
