OTDR: Creating a Work Report for Optical Fiber Construction

Applicable Model: AQ7280 series/AQ1210 series

A work report that includes an Optical Time Domain
Reflectometer (OTDR) trace is sometimes required after installation
or maintenance is completed. The report function in the Yokogawa
OTDR can create a report in PDF format that includes the measured
data and can be used as a work report. This function supports batch
processing, which can generate several reports in a single
operation.
The report includes the following information: measurement
conditions, measurement data (OTDR traces, fiber end face image
and trace overview, etc.) and analysis results (measurement results,
marker information, event detection conditions, Pass/Fail judgment
conditions, etc.). The format can be selected according to the user’s
preference.
Some of the measurement information such as model name,
serial number, firmware number and measurement date cannot be
modified while other information such as label, company name,
name, cable ID, fiber ID, fiber types, cable code, originating location,
terminating location, construction procedure, etc. can be.
Information that can be modified is stored in advance for later recall.
With the AQ7933 OTDR emulation software, which is a free
software for a Windows PC, a more detailed report can be
generated.
