Safety Instructions
The WARNING sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to a
procedure, practice, or the like, which, if not correctly performed or
adhered to, could result in personnel injury. Do not proceed beyond a
WARNING sign until the indicated conditions are fully understood
and met.
The CAUTION sign denotes a hazard. It calls attention to an
operating procedure, or the like, which, if not correctly performed or
adhered to, could result in damage to or destruction of part or the
entire product. Do not proceed beyond a CAUTION sign until the
indicated conditions are fully understood and met.
The NOTE sign information that may be beneficial during the use
and maintenance of the instrument.
Battery: Battery for this instrument is rechargeable NiMH battery. If
unused for a long time, battery should be recharged before being used.
If the instrument is left idle for more than two months, it should be recharged to maintain
adequate battery volume. Do not recharge batteries for more than 8 hours. Do not take
batteries out without technical staff’s help. Do not expose batteries to fire or intense heat.
Do not open or mutilate batteries. Avoid touching the electrolyte in the batteries, which is
corrosive and may cause injuries to eyes, skin or damage to clothes.
External Power: OCC-50 supports external power. Power requirements: DC
13.8V/1.2A.
Laser Radiation: To avoid serious eye injury, never look directly into the optical outputs
Users should avoid looking directly into optic output of any
working laser source or live fiber. And the use of microscope or
magnifier should also be avoided, for the use of such devices can
focus a highly intense beam onto the retina, which may result in
permanent eye damage

of fiber optic network equipment, test equipment, patch cords, or test jumpers.
Always avoid looking directly into the optical output port, when the instrument
is working
Always replace protective dust cap on the detector port when the instrument is
not being used
Always avoid looking directly at unconnected end of optic fiber in testing and
make the unconnected end pointing at a non-reflective object, if possible
