Running Pass/Fail Analysis:
1. Insert the Bulkhead Inspection Tip into the bulkhead or insert the Patch Cord ferrule into the Patch Cord
Inspection tip on the P5000i Microscope Probe.
2. Adjust the Focus Control wheel of the P5000i microscope to focus the optical fiber. The left
vertical bar on the screen indicates the level of focus adjustment. The higher the level, the
better the focus. The screen will display a line in the focus bar where the optimal focus lies for
that image. Focus the image until the bar is as close to the line as possible.
