1 Introduction
The three-wavelength laser
source offers excellent stability, portability and
facile adjustments for accurate optical fiber
testing. Single output connector serves three
wavelengths, 1310nm,1490nm & 1550nm.
PROLITE-
PROLITE- can be used to test single mode
optical fiber of long distance and local network.
Also it can work with optical power meter to
measure the loss of optical fiber.

3 Preparing for Operation
3.1 Unpacking the instrument
Packing material
Checking the package contents
We suggest that you keep the original packing material. Using the original packing
material is your guarantee of protecting the instrument during transit.

User's Guide
Checking for damage in transit
After unpacking the instrument, check to see whether it was damaged in transit.
This is particularly likely if the outer casing is clearly damaged. If there is damage,
do not attempt to operate the instrument or to repair it without authorization. Doing
so can cause further damage and you may lose your warranty qualification.

3.2 Power Supply
There are battery indicator and power plug on the screen to show the power supply.
When you use the DC 6v charger, there is no battery indicator on the screen. When
you do not connect the DC 6v charger, the adapter indicator will disappear on the
screen.
When you use the battery, the battery indicator on the screen will show the remaining
charge. An empty battery indicator means the power is almost out. When the battery
charge is extremely low to supply the necessary power, the instrument will
automatically switch off after several beeps of the buzzer. Please change the battery
or recharge it
