Selecting the Default File Format for the Fault Finder Traces

Selecting the Default File Format for the Fault

Finder Traces

You can define the default file format the Fault Finder application will use
when you save your traces.

Note: The default file format used in Fault Finder mode are independent from the

file format used in Auto or Advanced modes. There is one default file
format for Fault Finder and one default file format for the other OTDR
modes.

By default, traces are saved in native (.trc) format, but you can configure
your unit to save them in Bellcore (.sor) format.

You can only modify the file format from the Save File dialog box, which
means you need to save at least one trace in the desired format before it
becomes the new default file format.

Note: The application will only display this dialog box if you have activated the

feature to always be prompted when you save a file (see Enabling or
Disabling the Confirmation of Fault Finder File Name on page 84
) and if
you did not disable the storage features.
