@KevinPeres
@KevinPeres 2 ай бұрын
@@rubenalgotsson807 to measure specific locations you need the outer markers to perform 4 point LSA. To simply it we measure loss using backscatter and there can be noise generated near the event. To help smooth out or reduce this noise we use the outer markers out as far as possible without crossing another event. This ensures that we reduce the impact of noise generated near the event we are measuring. I hope this makes sense.

Hello Kevin, I just recently came about this video to update my EXFO Max Tester-730-SM2. I followed the steps to the teeth and now that the OTDR restarted my apps are no longer coming up on the screen, seems they are deleted somehow. Anyway or do you happen to have a solution for this? Would i need to send it off to get this fixed?

How can you use exfo ftb-1 pro as a manual loopback for 1G electrical for Y.1564? Meaning test being run from a different source and the exfo being the loopback.
@KevinPeres
@KevinPeres 3 ай бұрын
Robert, You will want to use smartloop back. Or if the SW is fully updated we can respond to the most common third party vendor loop commands such as from Viavi. Give it a try the only thing you will need to make sure is that you have link. Set your port 1 1G electrical and connect it to your network. When you initiate the loop common from the far end unit if its a supported device we will respond to that loop.

Is there something I'm missing?

Hunter I am glad you found this video useful. What you are asking for is a popular request. The uploads from FR and from the test set when not part of a job are what we call AdHoc uploads. They are not associated with any Jobs. If you look at the results tab in Exhcnage you will see Exchange jobs will have a hyperlink to the job but manually uploaded test do not. It is a request I have submitted and will add your name to the list of folks looking for that feature.

Hello Kevin, Interesting video, what length do you recommend for the loop cable that you find it good in the measurement? Does it also work with APC connectors? Often good APC plugs have no reflection We have already tried it in the Iolm with a 20m loop cable and APC connector, but there are often problems with it not recognising the connector. Greetings from Germany, Patrick Heller

@@Paddy-we1bx hello Patrick. Great name I have a son named Patrick. I recommend at least 100-150 meters. It really depends on the span length. APC connectors often do show non-reflective.

Hi there, we have a viavi otdr, just wondering if we can use this program to do the bidirectional trace? We have downloaded it and tried loading “.sor” trace and it won’t load. Thanks
@KevinPeres
@KevinPeres Жыл бұрын
Fast Reporter 3 will open SOR files but sometimes there will be some anomalies. While SOR are a "standards" based format there is some wiggle room for some of it that each vendor may interpret differently. We try to build support and work around where we can but we are often limited. For example many third part SOR we will not re-analyze because of this. If you go to the OTDR tab and select Import this will allow you to import in some SOR files that do not meet Bellcore compliance or there is something we needed to adjust. For example some Viavi traces reference out the launch and the launch connector differently so when you import them we will adjust to that. It is not perfect and sometimes you will see some differences. It is always important to compare what the results look like in the test set or from a report pulled from the test set to make sure everything is looking good. Now if you are talking about using the iLoop tool I am almost certain it will not work on third-party SOR because we need to reanalze it. Hope this helps!
