Customizing the Elements Table Tab
Setting Launch and Receive Fibers on Elements
You can change Link Start Element (A) and Link End Element (B) on the
link. The application also allows you to change the launch fiber length and
receive fiber length on both new and existing elements. If no element is
located in this position, a new element is created.
You can set the launch and receive fibers in both Fiber and Cable views, as
well as the Elements Table tab. However, if you are setting them in Cable
view, or on the cable at the top of the Fiber view, the operation must be
possible on all of the fibers included in the cable.
To set the Launch fiber and Receive fiber on an existing element:
1. Open the iOLM file.
2. Select the element that you want to set as the launch/receive fiber
element from the link or fiber views. Right-click on the element, and
select Set Element as Link Start or Set Element as Link End.
