active, you see a value of -.- dB in the Refl. Limit
edit field.
Connector Loss Limit • Conn. Loss Limit: Insertion Loss for the Connector.
A Pass/Fail test checks whether any Reflective Events
have an Insertion Loss greater than this limit.
For all Events which exceed the limit, you see an entry
in the Pass/Fail Test table.
So, if the Connector Loss limit is 0.8dB, all Events with
an Insertion Loss greater than 0.8dB are entered in the
Pass/Fail Test table.
The Connector Loss limit can be anything up to 5dB.
Enter a value of 0 dB to deactivate this test. If the limit
is not active, you see a value of -.-- dB in the Conn.
Loss Limit edit field.
Sort result • Sort result for...: order in which entries appear
in the Pass/Fail Test.
If you sort results for severity, the Event which exceeds
its limit the most is listed first. Other Events follow in
order of severity.
The different parameters (NRefl. Limit, Total Link
Loss, and so on) are weighted, and the Mini-OTDR
software works out which was the most severe error.
If you sort results for location, Events are listed
according to how near they are to the start of the fiber.
Sorting the results of the Pass/Fail Test table has no
effect on the Event Table.
