Using the Failed Items Filter

To analyze measurements:
1.
In the Measurements tab, select the measurements to analyze.

Note: You can analyze the multiple measurements of the unidirectional and

bidirectional OTDR file, only if the FR2-FC option or trial option is activated
in the application.

2. On the Measurement menu, select OTDR, and click Analyze.

3. Select wether you want to keep the span start and end positions, or if

you want to reset them to zero.

4. Click OK.

Once the analysis is performed, the window is refreshed automatically.
Information such as IOR, Helix factor, splice loss threshold, reflectance
threshold, end-of-fiber threshold are analyzed

Note: A->B and B->A are re-analyzed when a real bidirectional file is

re-analyzed.
