Accessing the Users Manual

This guide provides basic information to help you get started

using the FIBER QUICKMAP Multimode Troubleshooter. For

additional information, see the FIBER QUICKMAP Multimode

Troubleshooter Users Manual on the Fluke Networks website.

WSafety 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 troubleshooter 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.

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 troubleshooter.

An APC connector will cause damage to the fiber

endface in the connector on the troubleshooter.

FIBER QUICKMAP Getting Started Guide



Use only patch cords that comply with GR-326-CORE

specifications and have UPC connectors. 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 troubleshooter to a network that

is on. If you do, the troubleshooter can cause problems

in the network.



If ACTIVE LINE blinks, immediately disconnect the

troubleshooter from the fiber. Optical power levels

more than +7 dBm can cause damage to the detector

in the troubleshooter.



The troubleshooter senses optical signals only at

850 nm. If there might be signals at other wavelengths

on a fiber, use a different instrument to make sure that

the fiber is not active before you connect the

troubleshooter to the fiber.

How to Use the Troubleshooter

Notes

Always use test cords that comply with GR-326-CORE

specifications and have UPC connectors. Other cords

can cause unreliable measurements.

Fluke Networks recommends that you use launch and

receive fibers. See the Users Manual.

Clean all fiber connectors.

Connect the fiber to the troubleshooter (Figure 5).

Turn on the troubleshooter, then press . Pages 10 and 11

show examples of measurement results.

Note

If there is a break in the fiber, the troubleshooter does

not show incidents after the break.

If the reflectance or loss of a connection is higher than the limit:



A connector endface is dirty or damaged.



A connector is loose.



The cable is damaged within about 3 m of the connector.



The connection is between fibers of different types.



The fiber has a bad splice or a sharp bend.
