As the laser is harmful to the eyes, do not attempt to disassemble the cabinet.
Precautions for Use
Use batteries
At the same time, can not use different style or different capacitance batteries. And only charge the rechargeable batteries.
Avoiding condensation problems As much as possible, avoid sudden temperature changes. Do not attempt to use the drive immediately after moving it from a cold to a warm location, to raising the room temperature suddenly, as condensation may form with in the drive. If the temperature changes suddenly while using the drive,
Stop using it and take out batteries for at least an hour.
Storage
When long time no use, must take out the batteries to avoid destroying the device.
Due to technology improvement, product specifications are subject to change without notice.

There are 10×10 grids in waveform region.
Horizontal grids mean distance, vertical grids mean dB value. As shown in figure, each horizontal grid represents 2.0km, each vertical grid represents 5dB.

Real-time and average measurement

Pro sKit MT 7610 Optical Time Domain Reflectometer - Fig

Real-time measurement can quickly judge basic faults of optical fiber. Press button to start real-time measuring. During measuring, you can change REAL range, zoom in or zoom out . Press button again to stop. The device REAL will not analyses event after real-time measurement in default. Unless you turn on RT analyse in System settings, the device will analyse events according to the last refreshed waveform.
Average measurement can judge the line condition more accurate. It can get a better SNR and fits high requirement circuit. Press button to start. User can SCAN set measurement time from 5 second to 180 second. The device analyses events and generates event list automatically. Press button during measuring, device SCAN will stop measuring, analyses events and generates event list automatically.

Event list on main interface
Event list
After measurement or open a waveform in memory, there is event list on the bottom of waveform interface. Press button to show the whole event list.Five types of events as followed:Pro sKit MT 7610 Optical Time Domain

Press Up or Down button to select an event which needs to be located by cursor on the waveform. Then press button to return to waveform interface. The cursor will stay on the position of the selected event. Press button to return to waveform interface.
Real-time measurement tips

The device supports user to change measurement range during real-time measurement. Start Real-time measuring function and press Up or Down button to increase or decrease the range. And it also supports to change the cursor position and zoom in/out waveform in realtime, which means you can zoom in partial waveform while measuring to judge the network fault.

Cursor selection and waveform zoom in/out

This device has two cursors, A and B.
Default distance is 0m, activated cursor turned to bright black. Press Marker button switch to another cursor. Press Left or Right button to move cursor. Press Up or Down button to previous or next event. You can calculate the distance and attenuation between two cursors.

Keep pressing , then press and Up/Down button to zoom in or out waveform vertically. Keep pressing , then press Left/Right button to zoom in or out horizontally. Press button to return to full screen display. Notice: the focus of zooming is the location of the activated cursor.

There are five pages of menu which used to configure parameters. Under waveform interface, press button to switch the five menus cyclically.
The five menus are:

  1. File menu
  2. Measure settings menu
  3. System settings menu
  4. Module settings menu
  5. About

When the file menu opens,you will see the folders.
The folder name is the date of the file saved, which is generated automatically by system. Files measured in the same day will be stored in the same folder. Folder can be deleted and renamed .
Press Up or Down button to select a folder and press button to open delete or rename tip. Then press button to finish deleting, or press button to cancel.When the delete or rename tip opens , press down butto to select rename,and press putton to enter the soft keyboard and rename it,or press button to cancel.

When finish measuring an optic fiber, press button to enter storage interface.
Default filename is hour/minute/second of first time storage. Press Up/Down/Left/Right button to select alphabets, digits and symbols on soft keyboard. You can input 23 alphabets at most. If “Automatic naming” is enabled, the filename will automatically generated with four digits. Without shutting down the device, the following stored file’s name will automatically plus 1. The file format is .SOR.  On file recalling interface, press Right button can Modify filename, as the same operations above.

Measure settings menu is used to set relative measurement data, which The judgment of events list is based on. Wrong setting might leads to wrong or missing events.
Wavelength—wavelength of laser.
Scan mode—Manual and auto mode. Under auto mode, it will match the Distance, range and pulse width .
Range—match with the length of measured optic fiber, usually over one level.
Pulse width—set the pulse width of output laser. Usually, small pulse width can measure close event, large pulse width can measure remote distance,but enlarge event’s blind area. Average time—can set between 5 second and 180 second as average measurement time. Splice loss—treat as an event when the loss is higher than setting value.
Reflection threshold—treat as an event when the reflection is higher than setting value.
End threshold—treat as the end of optic fiber when the loss is higher than setting value.
Reflective rate—represent the average refractive index of entire optic fiber.
Scatter coefficient— the intrinsic value of Rayleigh Scattering.
