Optical Loss Test Set

Getting Started Guide

The DTX-CLT CertiFiber Optical Loss Test Set is a rugged, hand-held

instrument used to certify, troubleshoot, and document fiber

cabling installations.

Accessing the Product Manuals

This guide provides basic information to help you get started using

the tester. For more detailed information, see the latest versions of

the DTX-CLT CertiFiber Users Manual and the DTX Series Technical

Reference Handbook provided on the DTX-CLT CertiFiber Product

Manuals CD and on the Fluke Networks website.

WWarningX

To avoid possible fire, electric shock, personal injury,

damage to equipment, or inaccurate test results, read the

safety information in the DTX-CLT CertiFiber Users

Manual before using the tester.

Power the Tester

•

You may power the tester with the ac adapter included or with

the removable lithium ion battery pack.

•

You may charge the battery when it is attached or detached

from the tester (Figure 1).

•

The battery charges fully in about 4 hours with the tester off. A

fully-charged battery lasts for at least 12 hours of typical use.

Prepare to Save Tests

•

Check the memory space available:

Turn the rotary switch to SPECIAL FUNCTIONS; then select

Memory Status.

•

Select a cable ID source:

You can select IDs from a pre-generated list or create an ID after

each test. Turn the rotary switch to SETUP, select Instrument

Settings, select Cable ID Source; then select a source.

•

Set up a job folder:

On the Instrument Settings menu select Current Folder. Select

an existing folder or press JCreate Folder to create a new

folder.

•

Enter job information:

On the Instrument Settings menu press Cto show the tab with

the Operator, Site, and Company names. To enter a new name,

select a setting, press JCreate; then use the softkeys, BC

AD, and Hfor editing. Press Nwhen you are

finished.

Clean and Inspect All Connectors

WCaution

When using the fiber modules, use proper procedures to

clean and inspect all fiber connectors before every use.

Neglecting this step or using improper procedures can cause

unreliable test results and may permanently damage the

connectors. See the Users Manual for instructions.

Set the Reference

The reference serves as the baseline power level for loss

measurements.

Set the reference at these times:

•

At the beginning of each day using the remote end setup you

will use that day.

•

Anytime you reconnect a test reference cord to the module’s

output or other source.

•

Anytime the tester warns you that the reference is out of date.

•

Anytime you see a negative loss measurement. (See the

Technical Reference Handbook for more information.)

•

Anytime the tester tells you to set the reference.

To set the reference

Turn on the tester and smart remote and let them sit for 5

minutes. Allow additional time if the modules have been

stored above or below ambient temperature.

Turn the rotary switch to SETUP, then select Fiber Loss. Set the

following on the Fiber Loss tabs (press Cto see other tabs):

•

Test Limit: Select the test limit required for the job. Press

JMore to see other lists of limits.

•

Fiber Type: Select the fiber type to be tested.

•

Remote End Setup: Set to Smart Remote.

•

Bi-directional: Enable this if you are required to test the

fiber in both directions.

•

Number of Adapters and Number of Splices: Enter the

number of adapters and splices that will be added to each

direction of the fiber path after the reference is set.

•

Connector Type: Select the connector type used in the

cabling to be tested. Select General if the exact type is not

listed.

•

Test Method: Select 1 Jumper if you use the reference and

test connection shown in this manual.

Turn the rotary switch to SPECIAL FUNCTIONS, then select Set

Reference.

The Set Reference screen shows reference connections for the

test method you selected. Figure 2 shows Smart Remote mode.

Clean and inspect the connectors on the testers and test

reference cords, connect the tester and smart remote; then

press P.

Make Sure Your Test Reference Cords are

Good

Disconnect the test reference cords from the INPUT ports on the

tester and smart remote.

Make the connections shown in Figure 3.

Turn the rotary switch to AUTOTEST, then press P.

Press Hto see the test results. The results for each fiber

(Input Fiber and Output Fiber) must be no more than these

limits:

WCaution

An overall result of PASS does not show that the test

reference cords are good. You must compare the loss to

the limits given here to make sure the cords are good.

Multimode test reference cord:

850 nm: 0.11 dB or less

1300 nm: 0.10 dB or less

(The limits are different because fiber has more loss at 850 nm

than at 1300 nm.)

Singlemode test reference cord:

0.20 dB or less for 1310 nm and 1550 nm

If a result is more than the limit shown above, use the procedure

given in the Users Manual to test the cords in the path that

failed (Input Fiber or Output Fiber). When you have good test

reference cords, set the reference and do these steps again

before you test a fiber link.

Save the test results to show that you used good test reference

cords to test the link.

Note

Fluke Networks recommends that you use this procedure

to make sure your test reference cords are good before

you test each fiber link.
