Certification Information

F.C.C. Information to User

This unit has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital

device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide

reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This

unit generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and

used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to

radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not

occur in a particular installation. If this unit does cause harmful interference to radio

or television reception, which can be determined by turning the unit off and on, the

user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following

measures:

³Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

³Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.

³Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which

the receiver is connected.

³Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

Independent Laboratory Testing

This unit has undergone extensive certification testing both internally, at EXFO,

and externally, at an independent, qualified laboratory. All pre-qualification tests

were performed at EXFO while all final tests were performed at UltraTech

Engineering Labs Inc., a renowned test laboratory from Mississauga, Canada. This

guarantees the unerring objectivity and authoritative compliance of all test results.

Information to User

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B

digital device.

LED PRODUCT

Description 3

2Description

The FLS-110 Optical Polarized Source is a fiber-optic source used with a power

meter to measure power and loss in singlemode fibers, and with a PMD analyzer

such as the FTB-5500 and FTB-5500B for PMD measurements. The unit includes a

LED optical source and a 2 kHz signal generation for fiber identification. The FLS-110

is powered by either the built-in rechargeable NiCd battery pack, the 9 V alkaline

battery, or the AC adapter/charger.

3 Maintenance

To help ensure long, trouble-free operation:

³Always clean fiber-optic connectors before using them.

³Keep the unit free of dust.

³Clean the unit casing and front panel with a cloth slightly dampened with water.

³Store unit at room temperature in a clean and dry area. Keep the unit out of

direct sunlight.

³Avoid high humidity or significant temperature fluctuations.

³Avoid unnecessary shocks and vibrations.

³If any liquids are spilled on or into the unit, turn off the power immediately and

let the unit dry completely.

The FLS-110 contains no user-serviceable parts. However, the unit contains sensitive

electronic and optical components, and should be handled carefully and stored in its

carrying case when not in use.

Cleaning the Optical Port

To prevent dust and dirt from entering the connector, always replace the protective

cap on the optical port when not in use. Clean the optical port using a lint-free swab

dipped in isopropyl alcohol (98% pure or more) and blow-dry with compressed air.

In case the unit is equipped with a universal interface (option), rotate the connector

adapter counter-clockwise and remove it. You now have access to the ferrule inside

the connector interface. Clean and blow-dry as explained above. Then replace the

connector adapter and rotate it clockwise until it clicks into place.

Recharging the NiCd Battery Pack

The LOW BAT indication is displayed when the instrument switches from the

NiCd battery pack to the 9-V alkaline battery. To recharge the NiCd battery pack,

plug in the AC adapter/charger. A full recharge takes approximately 14 hours. For

maximum efficiency, recharge the battery at room temperature. To extend NiCd

battery life, deplete the battery’s charge completely before activating the AC

adapter/charger.

WARNING

Use of controls, adjustments and procedures for operation and

maintenance other than those specified herein may result in

hazardous radiation exposure.

Maintenance 5

Replacing the 9 V Alkaline Battery

To replace the alkaline battery:

1. Power off the unit and remove it from the holster.

2. Open the battery compartment door located at the back of the unit.

3. Replace the battery (respecting polarity).

4. Close the battery compartment door and replace the holster.

Periodic Source Verification

EXFO recommends that the FLS-110 be sent back to the factory every year for

verification and adjustment.
