California Proposition 65, officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforce-
ment Act of 1986, was enacted in November 1986 with the aim of protecting individuals
in the state of California and the state's drinking water and environment from excessive
exposure to chemicals known to the state to cause cancer, birth defects or other repro-
ductive harm.

This chapter describes the features and usage of the FiberComplete PRO (FCOMP-
PRO) - The fiber acceptance testing process control application.
The topics discussed in this chapter are as follows:
•"General introduction" page 2
•"FCOMP/-PRO Tests description" page 3

Chapter 1 FCOMP/-PRO Principles
General introduction
2 User Manual 700MAN203 Rev. 007
General introduction
FiberCompletePRO™ is the first solution to fully automate all the fundamental fiber-qual-
ification tests, such as bidirectional insertion loss (IL), optical return loss (ORL) and
optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR), with one module from one optical port. For
high fiber count projects, it is now possible to automatically test up to 12 ribbon fibers
with the Multi-fiber MPO optical switch module.
Select the best module and software configuration upon the fiber qualification tests
needed:
• Bi-Directional insertion loss (IL) and ORL with Fault Finder:
– available with E41xx-FCOMPFF and E41xx-B-FCOMP modules
– available with E41xx-B modules implemented with E41OTDRPM optical
power meter option and EOTDR-TO-FCOMP-UPG software option.
• Bi-Directional insertion loss (IL), ORL and OTDR (unidirectional and/or bi-
directional):
– available with E41xx-B FCOMP modules
– available with E41xx-B modules implemented with E41OTDRPM optical
power meter option and EOTDR-TO-FCOMP-UPG software option.
• On-board true bi-directional OTDR event analysis
– TrueBIDIR Method (two units at each end of the link)
• available with E41xx-A, E41xx-B, E41xx-C, E41xx-B FCOMP modules
with ETRUEBIDIR-FCOMP-PRO software option
– Loopback Method (a single unit at one end and a loop cable at the other
end)
• available with Smart OTDR A & B, E41xx-A, E41xx-B, E41xx-C, E41xx-B
FCOMP modules with ELOOPBACK-FCOMP-PRO software option
• High Fiber Count
– available with an additional module: E41MPO12SM multi-fiber MPO switch
module.

User Manual 700MAN203 Rev. 007 3
FCOMP/-PRO Tests description
Loss test and Loss test + OTDR
Requirements
FCOMP/-PRO-Loss Test and Loss Test + OTDR are used to perform automatically and
through a single connection port, the following tests:
•Bidirectional insertion loss (IL)
•Bidirectional optical return loss (ORL) using the continuous wave mode (OCWR)
•Distance/length measurements
•Unidirectional / manual Bidirectional OTDR (when TrueBIDIR or Loopback Soft-
ware options are not installed) and/or fault analysis, according to the module/
option installed.
To carry out the measurements, 2 equipments are needed, both equipped with Fiber-
Complete capable modules (see references in Chapter 15) and broadband power
meters on the mainframes.
Using one unit at each end of the fiber under test and without any connection/disconnec-
tion, IL/ORL and distance measurements are performed and results exchanged via the
fiber under test (FUT).
If the OTDR is selected, an OTDR measurement is launched automatically:
• Unidirectional mode: the OTDR acquisition is performed from the local unit
where the test has be initiated. Traces are saved locally
• Bidirectional mode: the OTDR acquisition is initiated successively from each
unit. The traces are saved locally. (See “TrueBIDIR OTDR” on page 67 for auto-
mated and real-time bi-directional OTDR analysis
If the Fault Finder is set to Yes (note: it automatically set the OTDR to No), a failed value
of IL and/or ORL triggers the fault finder function automatically in order to identify the
worst faulty elements.

Chapter 1 FCOMP/-PRO Principles
FCOMP/-PRO Tests description
4 User Manual 700MAN203 Rev. 007
Configurations
Two configurations are available, depending on the tests that have to be performed:
•Construction/Installation tests with loss, optical return loss, distance and OTDR.
•Acceptance Tests with loss, optical return loss and distance, and faults detection
in case of problem.
Construction/Installation Test
In this configuration, bidirectional IL and ORL, length and/or unidirectional/bidirectional
OTDR measurements are performed.
The bidirectional IL/ORL and length results are stored on each unit witih SW version
<23.5x only.
For SW version >= 23.5x: only the local unit (the one that initiates START) stores all
results files.
The OTDR traces are stored on the locally unit (where the test has been initiated).

Acceptance Tests
In this configuration, the bidirectional IL, ORL and length measurements are performed
and results are automatically stored on local unit.
If the Fault Finder function has been selected in the Setup menu, and if at least one
result exceeds the defined IL/ORL thresholds (Splice > 0.3 dB, Connector > 0.75 dB,
Reflectance > -32 dB and Bend > 1 dB), the predominant defects by event type causing
the failure are identified and located.
The FiberComplete screen displays an easy to interpret result table that prompts
predominant issues for easy troubleshooting.

If a Bidirectional OTDR measurement is performed, the OTDR results
are automatically saved on each unit;
•The OTDR results trace for acquisition performed from Location A to
Location B is stored on the local unit (Location A)
•The OTDR results trace for acquisition performed from Location B to
Location A is stored on the remote unit (Location B)
If TrueBIDIR, all the OTDR measurements are stored on the local unit
