How to Do the FaultMap Test

Notes

The FaultMap test does not use the launch
compensation settings.
The FaultMap test uses the wavelength that gives
the best results.

Figure 114 shows the equipment for the FaultMap test.

1

Clean and inspect the connectors on the launch and tail cords
or patch cords and the link to be tested.

2

Connect the launch cord to the OTDR port and the link to be
tested, as shown in Figure 115. Connect a tail cord to the far
end of the link if necessary.

Or, you can use a patch cord that is 1 m long at minimum to
connect the tester to the link. To see results for the far-end
connector, connect a tail cord or patch cord (>1 m) to the far end
of the link.

3

On the home screen, tap the test setup panel.

4

On the CHANGE TEST screen, tap the FaultMap test, then tap
USE SELECTED. If a FaultMap test is not available, tap NEW
