SimpliFiber® Pro Singlemode Optical Power Source Instruction Sheet The SimpliFiber® Pro Singlemode Optical Power Source provides optical power at 1310 nm and 1550 nm. The source is used with an optical power meter for testing singlemode fiber optic cable. The source comes with the following: • 2 AA alkaline batteries • Instruction Sheet If something is damaged or missing, contact the place of purchase immediately. Safety Information WWarning: Class 1 Laser* To avoid possible eye damage caused by hazardous radiation: • Never look directly into optical connectors. Some sources produce invisible radiation that can permanently damage your eyes. • Never turn on the source unless a fiber is attached to the port. • Do not use magnification to view the optical outputs without proper filtering. • Use of controls, adjustments, or procedures not stated herein might result in hazardous radiation exposure.

loss, and to ensure maximum accuracy of test results: • Use proper cleaning procedures to clean all fiber connectors before every use. Neglecting this step or using improper procedures can cause unreliable test results and may permanently damage the connectors. • Cover all connectors with protective caps when not in use. • Never connect the source to an active network. Doing so can disrupt network operations. • After you turn on the source, let it warm up for 10 minutes before use. Allow additional time if the source has been stored above or below ambient temperature. Features fft01.eps A X: On/off key.

The source’s signal includes an identifier that tells the SimpliFiber Pro meter which wavelength to measure. Press Z to change the wavelength. The wavelength LEDs indicate the wavelength.

output signals. • Use continuous wave mode (CW/2 kHz LED on steady) for making loss or power measurements with a meter other than a SimpliFiber Pro meter. • Use the 2 kHz modulated output mode (CW/2 kHz LED blinking) if locating fibers with a meter other than a SimpliFiber Pro meter. Also enables or disables auto power-off. See "Auto Power- Off". D I: Selects FindFiber mode, which is used with a SimpliFiber Pro meter to help you quickly identify link connections at patch panels. The ID 2 LED lights if the source is in FindFiber mode. E The LOW BATTERY LED blinks continuously if the battery is low. The LED blinks occasionally if auto power-off is disabled. See "Auto Power-Off". F Output port with SC adapter. Battery Installation, Life, and Status fft02.eps • The batteries last for about 30 hours of typical use. See the specifications. • Replace the batteries if the LOW BATTERY LED blinks continuously. The LED blinks occasionally if auto power-off is disabled. See "Auto Power-Off".

if no keys are pressed. To disable or enable auto power-off, hold down M for 4 seconds. • If auto power-off is enabled, all LEDs turn on for 3 seconds. • If auto power-off is disabled, all LEDs blink for 3 seconds and the LOW BATTERY LED blinks occasionally.
