1 INTRODUCTION
1490/1550 nm selective power measurements

All OLP-87 instruments feature a port to which PON downstream
links (from OLT, Optical Line Termination) can be connected. The
signals at wavelengths 1490 nm and 1550 nm are filtered and
measured separately (does not apply to BN 2305/01, BN 2305/
21 and BN 2305/26). This power meter port is calibrated at the
respective center wavelength.
Through path
The through path links the signals from ONT (1310 nm) and OLT
(1490 nm and 1550 nm). Signals are passed through to the
1490/1550 nm port and vice versa. The OLP-87 can be inserted
into the PON network transparently.
Burst power measurements at 1310 nm

The OLP-87 can also be used to measure burst type signals as
found in PON uplink paths at 1310 nm in FTTx mode. The
average burst power is displayed independently from the burst
duty cycle (active/idle). This power meter port is calibrated at the
respective center wavelength.
Broadband mode
The 1310/1490 nm instruments feature non-selective power
measurements via the OLT port. In this mode, the OLP-87 FTTx
tester behaves like a standard broadband power meter, e.g.
attenuation measurements can be made in the usual way using
a suitable optical source. OLS-85 Optical Light Sources are ideal
for this application.
Both modulated and unmodulated light signals can be
measured. The average power of modulated light signals is
displayed. The broadband power meter is calibrated at 1310 nm,
1490 nm, 1550 nm and 1625 nm. Modulated signal mode, which
uses different fixed frequencies, can be used to identify fibers in
a fiber bundle, for example.
The Auto- function allows automatic wavelength detection.
This application requires a wavelength encoding light source,
e.g. one of the OLS-85 Optical Light Sources.

7 PROBE/PCM OPERATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
General information
Dirty and/or damaged connectors are often the root cause of

optical network problems. The Probe and PCM applications
enable industry standard inspection and automated Pass/Fail
testing with report generation of optical connectors/adapters in
order to ensure industry standard fiber endface quality and
cleanliness.
For best workflow efficiency, there are two variants of fiber
microscopes available in the SmartClass Fiber family. The
integrated Patch Cord Microscope (PCM) which is best suited for
inspecting fiber endfaces of patch cords and the external P5000i
Digital Probe (see Digital Probe Microscope on page 119)
which may be either used for bulkhead inspection or patch cord
inspection.
The shortest inspection time is achieved when using one of the
OLP-87P models with an integrated PCM for patch cord
inspection and a P5000i Digital Probe for bulkhead inspection.
Both applications Probe and PCM behave essentially the
same and are described together below.
Notes: Only if a P5000i Digital Probe is connected to the
instrument is the Probe application fully functional.
Select an OLP-87P version in order to get PCM
functionality.
Patch Cord Microscope (PCM)
The PCM is a microscope used to view and inspect patch cord

(male) sides of fiber connectors.
In order to support a wide variety of fiber optic connectors the
PCM provides an exchangable FMAE adapter. The dedicated
QuickCapture key provides either instant triggering of a Pass/Fail
test or freezing the live image. For best workflow adaption the
key action is configurable. The dedicated Magnification Control
key provides fast toggling between two microscope
magnification levels, low magnification for high level inspection
of the fiber endface, and high magnification for detailed
inspection of the fiber endface.

8 BROADBAND OPERATION
GENERAL INFORMATION
General information
Broadband measurement is available for by enabling the

software option for 1310/1490/1550nm and 1270/1310/1490/
1550/1578nm instruments.
WARNING
Dangerous laser radiation
Laser radiation can cause irreparable damage to eyes and
skin.
The maximum permitted power for the OLP-87 means that the
optical input signals can reach hazard level.
Bear this in mind when using the OLP-87. In particular, the
instrument is equipped with a through channel that transmits
all the optical radiation from the input to the output without
attenuation, even when the OLP-87 is switched off.
Please note that also in broadband mode light is emitted at
the unconnected port only for BN2305/01,21,26 and
BN2306/01,21,26.
Always be aware of the hazard level of the instrument to be
connected.
Connect all optical fibers before switching on the radiation
source.
Switch off the laser source before disconnecting the optical
fibers.
Never look directly into the unconnected port of the
instrument, the output of a laser source or an optical fiber
connected to it.
Always cover unused ports.
Heed the normal precautions for working with laser radiation
and consider local regulations.

Enabling Auto mode

Auto is a special feature developed by Viavi that allows you to
identify wavelengths automatically. To do this, the signal is
modulated at a certain frequency (by a light source equipped
with Auto , such as a Viavi OLS-85), which can be detected by a
Viavi OLP-87.
In Auto mode the detected wavelength will be included in the
table. As long as the detected wavelength is active, it cannot be
deleted from the table.
Wavelengths cannot be reliably detected if:
the receive level is too low,
wavelength encoding cannot be detected due to interference

10 MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE TEST PORT
10 MAINTENANCE
WARNING
Dangerous voltage and invisible laser radiation
Maintenance or cleaning of the instrument while it is con-
nected or operating may damage the instrument or injure
you.
Make sure that the instrument is switched off and
disconnected from all power sources and optical radiation
sources before maintenance or cleaning.
Cleaning the test port
It is a good idea to check that the optical connections are clean

and clean them if necessary before starting measurements. Even
very small dust particles on the end surfaces of the plugs or in
the test adapters can adversely affect the accuracy of the
measurement.
1. Switch off the instrument.
2. Remove the test adapter from the optical connection.
The plug end surface is now accessible.
3. Wipe off the plug end surface using a cotton bud soaked in
isopropanol.
This cleaning method is very effective and leaves no residue.
4. Blow out the test adapter with clean compressed air (available
in spray cans, e.g. anti-dust spray).
Notes: Cover the optical connections with the dust cap
whenever they are not in use. This prevents them from
getting dirty.

11 REMOTE CONTROL
COMMUNICATION INTERFACE
11 REMOTE CONTROL
Communication interface
The OLP-87 is equipped with a USB 2.0 (Micro-B) device

interface for remote control via a PC. In order to operate the
OLP-87 via remote control it has to be connected to a PC with a
USB cable (see Accessories on page 119).
Fig. 21 USB cable for connection to a PC
The required driver files for the PC can be downloaded from

http://scf.updatemyunit.net. See the Readme file provided with
the driver package for installation guidance.
General operation
The main purpose of the remote control capability of the
SmartClass Fiber family is to set and get Setup and Result
values from an application. More complex remote control
commands (called Extended Commands) providing extended
application functionality are also available.
In general SmartClass Fiber allows multiple applications
running on the system simultaneously. Hence there must be a
way to select an application to which the remote control
commands should be directed. Refer to Selecting an
application on page 66 for more information.
In addition to the application-specific commands, there is a set
of Generic Commands which control the instrument itself,
independent from the currently selected application.
OLP-87 65
11 REMOTE CONTROL
Fig. 22 Remote control block diagram
Selecting an application
In order to get to all available applications, to change the
currently selected application, and to get to the currently
selected application there is a set of application management
commands. The application management commands are a
subset of the Generic Commands and start with :APPM. The
application management acts as a switch routing the remote
control commands to the selected application. In order to
identify an application each application has a unique application
ID (<app_ID>) which will be used to set the switch.
For example send :APPM:SEL SYSTEM in order to select the
system application.
In addition to selection via the application management
commands, one can use a colon followed by the <app_ID> as a
prefix to the remote command.
For example, add the prefix :SYSTEM to any system application
command in order to communicate with the system application.
Notes: Adding a prefix to a command has the same effect as
selecting an application via an application management
command. Hence, after using a prefix, the application
corresponding to that prefix is the selected application.
66 OLP-87
11 REMOTE CONTROL
Getting access to shared resources

On some instruments multiple applications share the same
hardware resources. For that reason SmartClass Fiber
instruments have the simple paradigm: the application which is
visible on the GUI always has access to the shared resources.
Regarding remote control, an application may not provide full
functionality if it is not the currently visible application. In order
to make sure the remote controlled application has full
functionality, one should make the application visible by using
the commands in the following table.
Command Purpose
:APPM:LIST? Provides a list of all application IDs separated by commas
:SYSTEM:APP:ID:VSBL Makes the application corresponding to the application ID visible

<app_ID>
:SYSTEM:APP:ID:VSBL? Retrieves the ID of the currently visible application
Notes: Applications that are not currently visible will return

-221,Settings conflict when setting a Setup that affects
shared resources, Results will return an invalid value
9.91E37 (NAN), and most of the Extended Remote
Commands will return -100,Command error.
Query the numerical setting range in the setup

The suffixes :MINV and :MAXV return the minimal and maximal
allowed values:
e.g. :SYSTEM:DISP:BRGH:MINV? returns the value 10 and
:SYSTEM:DISP:BRGH:MAXV? the value 100.

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Viavi Environmental Management Program

Superb performance and high quality have always characterized
Viavi datacom and telecom measurement technology products.
In this same world-class tradition, Viavi has an established,
proactive program of environmental management.
Environmental management is an integral part of Viavis
business philosophy and strategy requiring the development of
long-term, productive solutions to problems in the key areas of
economics, technology, and ecology.
A systematic environmental management program at Viavi is
essential in regard to environmental policy and enhances
cooperation between ourselves and our business partners.
The Viavi Environmental Management Program

considers:
Product design and manufacture
Environmental restrictions and requirements are taken into
account during planning and manufacture of Viavi products.
This attention ranges from the raw materials and finished
components selected for use and the manufacturing processes
employed, through to the use of energy in the factory, and right
on up to the final stages in the life of a product, including
dismantling.
Hazardous materials
Viavi avoids or uses with care any hazardous or dangerous
material in the manufacturing process or the end product. If the
use of a dangerous material cannot be avoided, it is identified in
product documentation and clearly labeled on the product itself.
Packaging materials
Preference is given to reusable or biodegradable single-
substance packaging materials whenever possible.
Environmental management partnerships

Viavi encourages our customers and suppliers who take this
responsibility seriously to join Viavi in establishing their own
environmental management programs.
