Overview
The SSF-FLS-300 optical light source provides single to quad
wavelength output, including 850/1300nm wavelengths for
multimode fiber and 1310/1550nm wavelengths for single mode
fiber. Together with the SSF-FPM-300 power meter, this optical light
source provides an accurate test solution for optical fiber networks.
Features
• Rugged design
• Portable size and easy operation
• Large LCD screen
• Auto shut-down function
• High stable single or quad wavelength output at CW or
modulated mode
• Low power self-inspecting function

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
1. Always keep the connector ports of the power meter clean.
2. Use the regulated optical connector for testing.
3. Shut off the power and cover laser with dust-proof cap after use.
4. When using AC adapter, ensure power supply is within the
required voltage range.
5. Remove the batteries when light source not in use for extended
periods of time
Troubleshooting
Issue Possible Reason Solution
Faint screen display Low battery power Charge or replace
the battery.
Unit fails to turn on
Low battery power
or battery inserted
incorrectly
(A) Replace the
battery
(B) Re-insert the
battery
Optical power is not
stable after when
light source turned
on
Allow a 5 minute
warm-up period
Warning
1. Ensure the connector is clean before testing.
2. Do not plug in the power supply when batteries are installed.
3. Do not look into the laser beam when unit is on.
4. Charge the batteries before use. Do not charge in unit.
5. Cover with laser with dust-proof cap when not in operation.

Overview
The SSF-FPM-300 is a handheld optical power meter which can
be used for absolute optical power measurements and relative
loss measurements on both SM and MM fibers. Its Ø1.0mm
photosensitive area photodiode significantly improves stability and
provides accurate measurements. This power meter features a
rugged design, wide range of power measurement, high accuracy,
and reference power level storage.
Features
• Wide dynamic measurement range (up to 80dB)
• Reference power level storage (Ref Setting)
• User self-calibration function
• Backlit LCD display supports low light operation
• Power measurements in dBm or mw and insertion loss in dB
• 10 minute auto-off function can be activated or deactivated.
AA alkaline batteries can last more than 140 hours, AC
adaptor also available
• Low battery power indication
