ALLTRADE ALK-502 Optical Multi Meter
VFL and LED flashlight
After power on, long-press the* /VFL key to turn on the VFL, short press to flash, and turn it off. Press the power button to control the flashlight turn on and off.
Calibration instructions
At the same time, press the LED+ REF key to clear the user’s calibration value, and the screen will fully display “-” to restore the default value; press the LED+VFL to enter the calibration mode, and “Cal” will be displayed in the upper left corner of the screen. The following operations are only valid in the calibration mode.

Common Troubleshooting Solutions
Fault hin t | Possible reasons | Settlement |
---|---|---|
The LCD display is weak | Insufficient power supply | Replace Battery |
Boot-up cannot be displayed | Insufficient power supply or other | Reboot or |
replace batteries
Abnormal optical power values| Joint failure, dirty| Reconnect Connector and
Clean Sensor
Specifications
Standard configuration
OPM host, OPM &VFL all-in-one machine (optional), certificate, operation
manual, two AAA batteries, lithium batteries (optional), data line(optional),
universal joint, packaging carton
Note: the rated charging voltage of the lithium battery is SV/IA.
Appearance and Ports
- port: connect to the fiber, test the optical power
- VFL port: connect to the fiber, find the fault point in a short distance
- LED light flashlight lighting
- Dust cover: cover to protect the optical port when no testing
- Display screen: display test results and other information
- Indicators: cable tracking light
- Power key, turn on/off automatic shutdown function
- /VFL: turn on/off backlight, turn on/offVFL
- RJ45/dB: turn on/off RJ45 sequence, switch absolute power display
- RJ45 network port: RJ45 sequence/tracking test
- PRESS button: press to take out the RJ45 sequence remote tester
- Remote tester: RJ45 cable sequence test
- Ji: switch the test wavelength of the power meter
- LED key: tum on/off the flashlight
- REF key; set the current power as the reference power
- Type C port: connect the power bank to supply power or charge
Power on/off and automatic shutdown
After pressing 6 briefly, the meter will tum on and start the automatic shutdown function. The default automatic shutdown time is 10 minutes. If you want to cancel the function, press and hold the power key for two seconds, and the 6 icon disappears, the automatic shutdown will be canceled.
Set reference optical power
After power on, enter the interface of OPM, press REF to set the current power as the reference power, and switch the relative optical power test (insertion loss test) and absolute power test. In the relative power test mode, the insertion loss (dB) and the reference value are displayed simultaneously. Short press “dB” to switch linear power and absolute power display. The units of linear power, absolute power, and relative power are W, dBm, and dB respectively.
Switch the wavelength
In the interface of OPM, short press the 11. key to switch the measurement
wavelength. Ten different wavelengths can be selected: 1310nm, 1550nm,
1577nm, 1490nm, 1625nm, 1650nm, 850nm, 1270nm, 1300nm, and 980nm. In order to
ensure the accuracy of the test, the selected wavelength must be consistent
with the measured optical signal.
RJ45 cable sequence and analog cable tracking
In the test interface of OPM, long-press the dB key to display the word “RJ45”
on the screen. At this time, enter the RJ45 cable sequence test, connect one
end of the network cable to the RJ45 port at the bottom, and connect the other
end to the remote tester. Short press the dB key to exit. Long press the dB
key again,
displays on the upper left corner of the screen, enter the cable tracking
mode, and short press the dB key to exit.
