Creating Reports

Creating Reports

You can create a report directly from the bidirectional application. This
report will be saved in .html format. You can open it from your unit or from
any computer equipped with a Web browser.

It includes the following information:

³

general information such as the cable ID, fiber ID, operators, etc. as
defined in the trace identification window (see Adding Information to
the Test Results
on page 261).

³

summary results, which comprise global bidirectional status as well as
the detailed status for each of the events having a fail status with their
wavelength. Fail values are displayed in red.

³

results, which comprise test parameters for A->B and B->A traces,
bidirectional summary results for events having a fail status, and the
bidirectional events table. Fail values are displayed in red.

In the case of multiwavelength files (bidirectional measurement has
just been created, but the file has not been saved yet), there will be
one section of results per wavelength.

Note: The reports that you can create with the application do not include graphs.

If you want to prepare reports with graphs, you can use the FastReporter
application.

Note: The application will keep in memory the path that you use to save your

report. The next time you want to save a report, the application will suggest
this path by default.
