Measuring Power or Loss
OTDR 85
Referencing Your Power Meter to a Source
4. Activate the source at the desired wavelength.
5. Match the power meter wavelength with the
source wavelength.
Press Wavelength (F1/F2 key) to switch
between favorite wavelengths of your power
meter (see Defining the List of Favorite
Wavelengths on page 80).
6. Press W/dBm/dB (F1/F2 key) until you get dB units to retrieve the last
saved reference.
OR
Press Reference (F1/F2 key) to save the
current power as the new reference.
Reference power appears (in dBm) and
current loss is automatically switched to dB.
