6.1. Power On/off

  • Mba hampandeha ny fitaovana, tsindrio ary hazòny ny fahefana bokotra (Ikona bokotra herinaratra) mandra-pahazava ny fampisehoana.
  • Mba hialana amin'ny herinaratra, kitiho ary hazony ny fahefana button again. The device also features an automatic shutdown function after 5 minutes of inactivity.

6.2. Optical Power Meter (OPM) Function

  1. Connect the fiber optic cable to the OPM port as described in Section 5.2.
  2. Tsindrio ny Halavany onjam (λ) button to cycle through the available calibrated wavelengths (850nm, 980nm, 1300nm, 1310nm, 1490nm, 1550nm, 1625nm) until the desired wavelength is displayed.
  3. The current optical power measurement will be shown on the LCD in dBm, dB, or uW.
  4. Setting Reference (REF) and Unit (dB/dBm): Tsindrio ny REF/dB button to switch between absolute (dBm) and relative (dB) measurements. To set a reference value for relative measurements, press and hold the REF/dB bokotra.
  5. calibration: For calibration, connect the KPV-53 to a light source of the same wavelength. Simultaneously press the REF/dB SY VFL keys to enter the adjustment interface. Use the Halavany onjam (λ) key for downward adjustment and the REF/dB key for upward adjustment. Once the desired calibration is achieved, press the VFL key to save the parameters.

8. Famahana olana

Tsy mandeha ny fitaovana:
Jereo raha voapetraka tsara ny bateria ary ampy ny fiampangana. Soloy ny bateria raha ilaina.
Famakiana OPM tsy marina:
Ensure the fiber optic connectors are clean. Verify that the correct wavelength is selected on the OPM. If readings are consistently off, consider recalibrating the device as per Section 6.2.
VFL laser is not visible:
Confirm that the fiber optic cable is properly connected to the VFL port. Ensure the VFL function is activated by pressing the VFL button. Check for any obstructions in the VFL output port.

9. Torohevitra ho an'ny mpampiasa

  • Always clean fiber optic connectors before use to ensure accurate measurements and prevent damage to the device's optical ports.
  • Utilize the appropriate fiber adapter for your specific connector type (SC, FC, ST, LC) to ensure a proper and secure connection.
  • Regularly check the battery levels, especially before critical testing, to avoid interruptions during operation.
  • When using the VFL, be mindful of the Class 3b laser and avoid direct eye exposure.
