1. Connector Adapter - Interchangeable
The RP 450 comes with a 2.5mm universal adapter. Contact ODM for additional adapter options.
2. Low Battery Indicator
“BATT” will appear on the LCD when the CR2 3V battery needs to be replaced.
3. 2kHz Tone Indicator
The RP 450 will beep and show “2kHz” on the LCD when a 2kHz modulated signal is recognized.
4. dB/dBm Button
Press this button to toggle between dB and dBm modes. Hold this button down when in dBm
mode to set a reference on the RP 450.
5. LCD Screen
This screen displays the measured value, currently-selected wavelength, and status indicators.
6. Measurement Mode Indicator - dB/dBm
dB is a loss measurement. dBm is an absolute power measurement.
7. Wavelength Button
Hold this button to switch the RP 450 between the 850, 1300, 1310, 1490, 1550, 1611, and
1625nm wavelengths. Press the button once to immediately display the current wavelength. The
currently-selected wavelength will briey appear onscreen every 8 seconds.
8. Power Button
Press this button once to turn the RP 450 on. Press once again to turn the RP 450 o. The RP 450
is set to turn o after 5 minutes. For continuous usage, press and hold the power button for 3

Unpacking and Inspection
The RP 450 comes supplied with a soft carry case, 2.5mm adapter (on the unit), 3.0V CR2
battery, and instruction card. Contact ODM immediately if any part of the unit or packaging
is damaged or otherwise unsatisfactory.
Low Battery
The RP 450 will provide over 1000 operations under normal conditions. When the BATT
indicator is shown on the device screen, the CR2 battery should be replaced.
Optical Connector Interface
The RP 450 is equipped with a universal connector adapter which allows the interface of
many popular style connectors. This connector adapter interface should be kept covered
and protected from contamination. Care must be taken to avoid objects that could damage
the glass surface of the detector mount. If scratches or breaks occur on the surface, please
contact ODM for proper service.
Warranty and Calibration
All ODM products come with a 2 year warranty. ODM recommends recalibration every two
years to ensure adherence to NIST measurement standards. The rst recalibration is free
within the warranty period. Contact ODM for return information.
