1. Warning & Important Notice

This equipment is intended for use in professional applications, where adequate safety mechanisms are being implemented. Review the following safety precautions to avoid injury and prevent damage.

CAUTION: Dispose

Production of this product required the extraction and use of natural resources. The equipment may contain substances that could be harmful to the environment or human health if improperly handled at the product's end of life. In order to avoid release of such substances into the environment and to reduce the use of natural resource, we encourage you to recycle this product in an appropriate system that will ensure that most of the materials are reused or recycled appropriately.

CAUTION: Transport

For transportation protect powerMONITOR from rain and handle it carefully.

CAUTION: Voltage

Use dedicated power adapter: Before connecting make sure that voltage rating and polarity is correct

CAUTION: Battery

• Avoid short circuits
• Operate and charge the battery between 0°C and +45°C.
• Do not heat the battery above 60°C.
• Do not dispose of the battery by burning.
• Do not solder directly to the battery.
• Do not disassemble the battery.
• Do not insert the battery in reverse polarity.
  The Li-Io battery has a potential for fire or burning.

CAUTION: Laser Handling Precautions

Laser light can damage your eyes. Laser light is invisible. Viewing it directly does not cause pain. The iris of the eye will not close involuntarily when viewing a bright light, consequently, serious damage to the retina of the eye is possible. Never look into the end of a fiber which may have a laser coupled to it. DO NOT use magnifiers in the presence of laser radiation. Diffused laser light can cause eye damage if focused with optical instruments. Should accidental exposure to laser light be suspected

12.1 Appendix System Monitoring

a) System monitoring with known output power

The powerMONITOR measures the deviation of the signal power at the end of the system as reference to the typical fiber output power from the light source (e.g. DVI converter, SFP transceiver, etc.) according the device specifications.

At the example below a light source with constant output power (-3dBm) is connected with an opticalCON cable to the powerMONTIOR. The monitor unit shows a received power on -4 dBm which means the deviation is 1 dB in reference to the output power of -3 dBm. The relative deviation is the system attenuation caused by the opticalCON cable on this example.

powerMONITOR e.g. NO4SBB1-4PM equipment fiber output power: -3 dBm

Fiber output power	-3 dBm
- Received power (absolute value):	-4 dBm

System attenuation (relative value dB ): 1 dB

opticalCON powerMONITOR

... Appendix – System Monitoring

b) System monitoring with unknown output power

To determine the attenuation of a system, connect a light source with defined output power like Neutrik's measurement KIT (CAS-FOMD ^1 ) with help of a LC patch cable and the used opticalCON cable (e.g. NKO4S-R-0-50 ^1 ) and powerMONITOR. In the example below the output power from the light source is -5dBm. The powerMONITOR shows on the display -6 dBm which is a 1 dB insertion loss deviation ( ).

output power light source Δ 1 dB Ω system attenuation -6 -5 A [dBm] t [s]

CAS-FOMD

Second connect the light source with unknown output power with the powerMONITOR. The measured values are the output power reduced through the system insertion loss from the opticalCON cable.

light source (unknown output power)

output power (light source) Δ 1 dB ▼ system attenuation threshold level power/MONITOR typical power budget A [dBm] t [s]

Set the threshold level according the known power budget from the system. Consider that insertion loss caused by cable bending and fiber contamination requires additional headroom to the power budget limit. If no power budget is known use typical attenuation values from the table below

Fiber Type	Single-mode	Multimode
Power budget	-9 dB	-7 dB

opticalCON powerMONITOR

12.2 Appendix – External Alarm Signal

With help of a custom cable (not included) there is the option to connect an external alarm unit (e.g. lamp) with the powerMONITOR. Pin 2 and 3 from the power supply (see section 5) are connected to an internal, normally open solid state relay. If the alarm starts the relay closes the internal circuit and the signal from pin 2 reaches the output pin 3.
