Starting an iOLM Acquisition

This section explains the iOLM acquisition process. The iOLM allows you to

characterize a fiber-optic span, usually optical fiber sections joined by

splices and connectors. The iOLM provides an inside view of the fiber, and

can calculate fiber length, breaks, total return loss, splice, connector, and

total losses. For more information on how to perform a loopback

measurement, see Configuring your iOLM on page 42.

To perform an iOLM acquisition:

Tap Start (standard measurement).

The application displays a confirmation message asking to save unsaved

data (if any) before starting a new acquisition.

Note: You will not be asked to save the file if the file functionalities are not

activated. See Setting User Preferences on page 23 for more details.

When an iOLM acquisition starts, the Link View tab is displayed by default.

The progress of the overall acquisition for all wavelengths is displayed in

the status bar. For example, if two wavelengths have to be processed, at

the end of the first wavelength acquisition the overall progress will be 50 %.

The current wavelength is displayed in front of the acquisition progress.
