OLP-39G/-39X TRUEPON TESTER
1 INTRODUCTION
1INTRODUCTION
OLP-39G/-39X TruePON Tester
The OLP-39G/-39X is a specialized TruePON Tester designed for
use cases such as system/network qualification, subscriber
activation, and troubleshooting of passive optical network (PON).
The instrument performs wavelength selective optical power
measurements suitable for testing G-PON networks, as defined
in ITU-T G.983/4 or IEEE 802.3ah (OLP-39G) and XGS-PON
networks, as defined in ITU-T G.9807.1 respectively (OLP-39X).
In TruePON mode the OLP-39G/-39X identifies the OLT-ID, ODN
class, and loss based on the TOL (Transmitted Optical Level from
OLT), while the ODN class can be recognized automatically or set
manually.
An integrated pass/fail analysis feature simplifies standard
conformity and optical budget/margin testing, and provides
unambiguous measurement result presentation.
With PC-based reporting, all test results can be summarized in a
professional, industry-proven report.
Main features
The OLP-39G/-39X offers many helpful features that are optimized
to workflows of typical telecom operators, and thus ensure that
test times are kept as short as possible.
• OLT-ID, ODN class and loss based on TOL for G-PON (OLP-39G)
and XGS-PON (OLP-39X)
• Display of G-PON and XGS-PON results separately or
simultaneously (OLP-39X)
• Accurate and repeatable wavelength selective power
measurements
• Unambiguous pass/fail result presentation and user definable
pass/fail thresholds
• Data storage for up to 1000 measurements
• USB-C interface for measurement data transfer to a laptop/PC
• Easy operation and instantly ready to operate
• Versatile power supply options using dry or rechargeable
batteries or via the USB-C interface
• Automatic power-off (can be disabled)
• Color-coded test head cover for easy distinction between APC
and PC connector types
• Smart-Reporter PC software for data management and report
generation

UNPACKING THE DEVICE
3GETTING STARTED
Unpacking the device
Packing material
We suggest that you keep the original packing material. It is
designed for reuse (unless it is damaged during shipping). Using
the original packing material ensures that the device is properly
protected during shipping.
Checking the package contents
Your device is shipped with the following accessories:
• 2.5 mm universal adapter
• 2 dry batteries AA
• User manual
• Belt bag
Checking for shipping damage
After you unpack the device, check to see if it has been damaged
during shipping. This is particularly likely if the packaging is
visibly damaged. If there is damage, do not attempt to operate
the device. Doing so can cause further damage. In case of
damage, please contact your local Viavi Sales Company.
Addresses can be found at www.viavisolutions.com.
Recovery following storage/shipping
Condensation can occur if a device that is stored or shipped at a
low temperature is brought into a warm environment. To prevent
damage, wait until no more condensation is visible on the
surface of the device before powering it up. Do not operate the
instrument until it has reached its specified temperature range
and wait until it has cooled down if the instrument was stored at
a high temperature (see “Environmental conditions” on
page 35).

Battery operation
Replacing the batteries
The battery compartment is on the back of the device.
1. Pull down the lid to open the battery compartment.
NOTICE: Take care to insert the batteries correctly.
The correct polarity is indicated by a diagram inside the battery
compartment.
2. Insert new batteries or replace dead ones.
3. Close the battery compartment.
4. Press [E] to switch on.
NOTE: The batteries cannot be recharged with the OLP-39G/-39X.
General tips on using batteries
• Never use batteries based on lithium.
• Always handle batteries with care.
• Do not drop or damage the batteries or expose them to
excessively high temperatures.
• Do not store rechargeable batteries for more than one or two
days at very high temperatures (e.g. in a vehicle), either
separately or fitted in the device.
• Do not leave discharged batteries in the device for a long time
if it is not being used.
• Do not store rechargeable batteries for more than 6 months
without recharging them at intervals.
• Avoid deep discharging of the batteries as this can cause the
cell polarity to reverse and make the battery useless.
WARNING
Dangers in handling batteries
Handling batteries may be dangerous. Please note the
following safety instructions.
JPlease note the battery operation safety information in the
booklet “Safety, Disposal end Environmental Protection”
provided with your device.
Replacing the batteries
JDo not replace individual batteries. Always change both
batteries at the same time.
JAlways use batteries of the same type; i.e. do not mix
rechargeable and non-rechargeable batteries.

Protecting the environment
Please dispose of any unwanted dry batteries and rechargeable
batteries carefully. They should also be removed from the
instrument if it is to be scrapped. If facilities in your country exist
for collecting waste or for recycling, please make use of them
rather than throwing the batteries in the normal trash. You will
often be able to return used batteries to the place where you
purchase new ones. Any dry or rechargeable batteries that you
purchased from Viavi can be returned to one of our Service
Centers for disposal.
