4.2 Toesteluitleg

5. Opstelling

5.1 Laai die battery

The device is powered by a built-in 3.7V 700mAh lithium battery. Before first use, or when the battery indicator on the display shows low charge, connect the device to a USB power source using the provided Micro USB cable. The power button will illuminate red during charging.

5.2 Verbinding van veseloptiese kabels

1. Ensure the fiber optic connector is clean. Use a fiber optic cleaning tool if necessary.
2. For FC, SC, or ST connectors, directly insert them into the 2.5mm universal port on the top of the device.
3. For LC connectors, attach the provided FC-LC adapter to the universal port, then insert the LC connector into the adapter.
4. Ensure a secure connection to prevent inaccurate readings.

5.3 RJ45-kabels koppel

1. Detach the small RJ45 module from the side of the main unit.
2. Connect one end of the RJ45 cable to the port on the main unit.
3. Connect the other end of the RJ45 cable to the detached module.
4. Proceed to the operating instructions for RJ45 cable testing.

6. Bedryfsinstruksies

6.1 Krag aan/af

• Om aan te skakel, hou die Kragknoppie (red button with power symbol) for approximately 2 seconds.
• Druk en hou die. In om uit te skakel Kragknoppie again for approximately 2 seconds.
• The device features an automatic power-off function after 10 minutes of inactivity to conserve battery.

6.2 Optiese Kragmeting (OPM)

1. Kies golflengte: Druk die λ (Wavelength) Button to cycle through the available calibrated wavelengths (850nm, 980nm, 1270nm, 1300nm, 1310nm, 1490nm, 1550nm, 1577nm, 1625nm, 1650nm). Select the wavelength corresponding to your fiber optic system.
2. Connect Fiber: Connect the fiber optic cable to the appropriate port as described in Section 5.2.
3. Read Absolute Power: The display will show the measured optical power in dBm.
4. Set Reference (Relative Measurement):
   • With a known good signal connected, press the REF/dB Button to set the current power reading as the reference value (0.00dB).
   • When measuring other points in the fiber link, the display will show the relative loss or gain in dB compared to the set reference.
   • Druk die REF/dB Button again to toggle between absolute (dBm) and relative (dB) measurements.

6.3 Visuele Foutlokalisering (VFL)

• Activate VFL: Druk die VFL Button. The 650nm red laser will emit from the VFL port (located near the fiber optic input ports).
• Identify Faults: Connect the fiber to be tested to the VFL port. Observe the fiber for any visible red light leakage, which indicates breaks, sharp bends, or faulty connectors.
• Deactivate VFL: Druk die VFL Button again to turn off the laser.
• Waarskuwing: Always follow laser safety guidelines (Section 2).

6.4 RJ45 Cable Tester

• Ensure the RJ45 cable is connected to both the main unit and the detached module as described in Section 5.3.
• The device will automatically begin testing the cable continuity. The display will show the status of each wire pair (1-8 for 8P, 1-6 for 6P, 1-4 for 4P).
• A successful test will show all corresponding numbers lighting up sequentially or indicating continuity. Any missing or incorrect sequence indicates a fault (e.g., open, short, cross).

6.5 LED-flitslig

• Druk die LED-knoppie to turn the integrated LED flashlight on or off. This is useful for working in dimly lit environments.

7. Onderhoud

• Cleaning Optical Connectors: Regularly clean the fiber optic input ports and any adapters using specialized fiber optic cleaning swabs or pens. Dust and debris are the primary causes of inaccurate measurements.
• Toestel skoonmaak: Wipe the exterior of the device with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners or solvents.
• Batterysorg: For optimal battery life, avoid fully discharging the battery frequently. If storing the device for an extended period, charge it to approximately 50% and recharge every few months.
• Berging: Store the device in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Use the protective caps for all ports when not in use.
