Operation Guide
AQ2170
The AQ2170 series are full featured mini sized and lightweight
optical power meters designed for use with an optical Light source
to perform optical loss measurements on optical fiber cables.
Optical connections to the AQ2170 are made via the universal
adapter interface on the top of the unit.
The instrument has 7 working wavelengths(The AQ2170H is 5
wavelengths) to totally satisfy your needs.
It can be extensively used in telecommunication projects and
other situations where optical power of wavelengths close to
infrared ray needs to be measured.
Introduction
Operation
Switches instrument on/off. Long keypress over 2 seconds
while powering on is to activate the instrument without Auto-off function.

Battery cover
Please cover the protective dust cap once you finish using.
It is a good idea to clean the connector and the instrument when they get dirty through use.Optical cleaning pads and
anhydrous alcohol is recommended. And please be careful not to get the detergent inside the instrument.
Periodic calibration is an effective means of keeping the instrument performing correctly for a long time and of detecting
malfunctions at an early stage.
We recommend that you have the AQ2170 calibrated once a year.
Prohibitions against Actions that Cause Leaking, Ignition and Explosion.
Do not leave it in a location that is exposed to direct sunlight.
Do not throw the battery into fire or heat it.
When you put the battery in the battery case, make sure that the battery is facing the right direction.
If you will not use the battery for an extended period of time, remove it from the AQ2170 and store it in a dry place.
Maintenance
Consumables
We recommend that you replace the Universal and connector adapters when used 1000 times.The recommended
replacement interval can vary greatly depenging on the operating environment and the frequency of use.The times are
estimated.The accessories are out of warranty.
