Displays detailed explanations of parameters in the measurement conditions setting menu, and gives guidelines for setting methods. This function assists unskilled users.

There may be concern that technicians inputting the OTDR measurement signal into the communication line could cause communication errors.
The live line alarm monitors the fiber’s optical power level and diplays an alarm message if it detects optical power at or higher than a specified threshold level, in order to warn the technician not to mistakenly feed the signal into the communication line.

The plug check function monitors the condition of the OTDR’s optical input/output connectors and displays an alarm if the connection is not properly made. This function is useful for checking for damage, dirt, or other problems with optical plugs
at the OTDR or on the fiber under test, and
for helping technicians to remember to connect
the fiber under test.

The fault event display function detects abnormal connection or reflection points and displays them. Of the events detected by the event detection function, abnormal events that cross a specified threshold value are highlighted in the event table and waveform display.

You can freeze the display of one trace and overlap it with real time or averaged waveforms for comparison.
This is useful to create a template when installing multicore fiber, or for checking aged deterioration during maintenance on existing fiber networks. In addition to the last-measured waveform, a waveform can be loaded from a file to be used as the reference waveform.

With the new SETUP button on the front panel, it is easy to move to the measurement condition setting menu.
