Performance Tests
Use the following performance tests to confirm that
the FOM or FOS is working properly. If the FOM
or FOS fails any of these tests, it needs calibration
adjustments or repair.
FOM -10 dBm Checkout
1. Turn on the FOM and the three light sources.
2. Connect the light source to the reference power
3. Adjust the output of the source for a power
4. Set the FOM switch to the wavelength position
5. Connect the FOM to the light source using the
6. Disconnect the light source from the FOM.
FOM -50 dBm Checkout
1. Connect the 1300 nm light source to the optical
2. Set the optical attenuator for a power meter
3. Connect the FOM to the attenuator using the
2 ST/ST multimode fiber optic patch cables

Allow the FOM to warm up for 10 minutes.
Allow the sources to warm up according to the
manufacturer’s specifications.

Disassembling and Reassembling
the FOM and FOS
To perform calibration adjustments for the FOM
and the FOS, you must disassemble them. When
you finish the adjustments, reassemble them. A
Phillips-head screwdriver is required for
disassembling and reassembling the FOM and FOS.
To disassemble the FOM or FOS, proceed as
follows:
1. Set the FOM or FOS switch to OFF.
2. Remove the battery door; then disconnect the
