Analyzing the Results Manually

Getting Section Loss and Attenuation

Although this method works fairly well for splice loss, it is clearly not

appropriate for reflective events (definitely not a “straight-line” event). A-B

LSA loss is mainly used to rapidly compute loss over a given length of a

fiber section.

Note: A-B LSA event loss measurements should be used on fiber sections only.

Measuring events will not yield meaningful results.

To get section loss and attenuation:

1. From the main window, select the Measure tab.

2. Tap the Section button. Markers A and B appear on the graph.

3. Place markers A and B at any two points on the trace. For more

information, see Using Markers on page 83.

4. Zoom in on the trace and fine-tune the marker positioning if necessary.

For more information, see Using Zoom Controls on page 109.

Note: There should not be any event between markers A and B when performing

a measurement.
