Analyzing or Reanalyzing Measurements
FastReporter lets you analyze measurements at any time. Analyzing or
reanalyzing measurements will:
³
reanalyze measurements acquired from different sources or with other
products.
³
recreate the original event table if it was modified.
³
reset the span start to zero and the span end to end-of-fiber, if desired.
To reanalyze measurements:
1. In the Measurements window, select the measurements to reanalyze.
2. On the Measurement menu, select OTDR, and click Analyze.
OR
In the Measurements window, click the right mouse button and click
Analyze on the shortcut menu.
3. In the OTDR Analysis dialog box, select or clear the following options:
³
Keep span start position: clear only if you want to reset the span
start to zero.
³
Keep span end position: clear only if you want to reset the span
end to end-of-fiber.
4. Click OK.
Once the analysis is performed, the window is refreshed automatically.
