Continuous Fiber

Continuous Fiber

This event indicates that the selected acquisition range was shorter than
the fiber length.

³

The fiber end was not detected because the analysis process ended
before reaching the end of the fiber.

³

The acquisition distance range should therefore be increased to a
value greater than the fiber length.

³

There is no loss or reflectance specified for continuous fiber events.
