FIBER OneShot Users Manual
Safety Information
WWarning: Class 1 Laser*
To prevent possible damage to your eyes caused by
hazardous radiation:
•
Do not look directly into optical connectors. Some
optical equipment emits invisible radiation that can
cause permanent damage to your eyes.
•
Do not turn on the meter unless a fiber is attached to
the port.
•
Do not use a magnifying device to look at the optical
outputs without the correct filter.
•
Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures that are
not in this manual can cause exposure to hazardous
radiation.
WWarning or Caution: Risk of damage to or destruction of
equipment or software. See explanations in the manual.
XWarning: Risk of electrical shock.
*Warning: Class 1 laser. Risk of damage to your eyes caused by
hazardous radiation.
~Do not put products that contain circuit boards into waste
containers. Refer to local regulations for disposal procedures.

Safety Information
WCaution
To prevent damage to fiber connectors, to prevent
data loss, and to make sure that your test results are
as accurate as possible:
•
Do not connect APC connectors to the meter. An APC
connector will cause damage to the fiber endface in
the connector on the meter. See Figure 3.
•
Use only patch cords that comply with GR-326-CORE
specifications. Other patch cords can cause unreliable
measurements.
•
Use the correct procedures to clean all fiber connectors
before each test. If you do not do this or if you use
incorrect procedures, you can get unreliable test
results and can cause permanent damage to the
connectors.
•
Put protective caps on all connectors when you do not
use them.
•
Do not connect the meter to a network that is on. If
you do, the meter can cause problems in the network.
•
If ACTIVE LINE blinks, immediately disconnect the
meter from the fiber. Optical power levels more than
+7 dBm can cause damage to the detector in the
meter.
