This manual contains operation information for the Terahertz Technologies Inc. FTE-6100-DWDM Tunable

Laser Source. This tunable source uses a resistive style touch screen and only proper stylus devices should

be used when operating this unit.

Warning

A warning alerts to situations that could cause personal injury.

Caution

A caution alerts to situations that may cause damage to the equipment or produce poor testing condi-

tions resulting in inaccurate test results.

Note

A special annotation that will assist the user with operational features.

Chapter 1 Using This Manual

There are warnings, cautions and notes posted throughout this manual.

Please read and follow all warning and caution information noted in this manual.

Precautions

FTE-6100 User's Guide Rev A 5/20172

This product has been designed and tested in accordance with the manufacturer’s safety standards, and has

been supplied in a safe condition.

This document contains information that must be followed by the user to ensure safe operation and to maintain

the product in a safe condition. Failure to follow these safety warnings and cautions can result in harm to the

user or damage to the instrument.

Warning

Personnel should always be aware when working with fiber optic test equipment that active fibers may

be present, therefore infrared optical energy may be present.

Warning

Never look directly into the end of a connected fiber optic cable or fiber optic interface of optical test

equipment, to do so could expose the user to laser radiation and could result in personal injury.

Warning

To Prevent Fire or Shock Hazard:

Chapter 3 of this manual is a quick start guide. Prior to using the quick start guide or operat-

ing the equipment in any way, it is highly suggested the user reads all safety information.

Chapter 2 Safety

Do not install battery types other than those speciﬁed by the manufacturer

Do not use the charger without the batteries installed

Do not expose the battery charger to rain or excessive moisture

Do not use the AC adapter when there are signs of damage to the enclosure or cord

Ensure the correct charger is being used for the local line voltage

Do not use any other charger than the one provided with this instrument.

The information in this chapter pertains to safety consideration of OTDRs in general.

Chapter 2 Safety

Laser Safety

The Tunable Laser Source has been conﬁgured to provide

laser radiation in the C Band of operation. (1530-1565nm) L

Band may be available upon request with a range of (1565-

1625nm). Please see the warning label in ﬁgure 1.1. This is

displayed on the left hand side of the body of the TLS. The unit

has been designed to comply with 21 CFR (Code of Federal

Regulations) 1040.10 and 1040.11, for Class 1M emission

limits. Although Class 1 levels are not considered to be hazardous, we suggest limiting exposure by

never looking directly into the optical aperture. Also, do not under any circumstance view or inspect the

laser output ﬁbers, connectors or the ﬁber under test through collimating or focusing optics unless the

unit is turned off, batteries are removed and the power adapter is disconnected.

Fig 2.1

The FTE6000 also contains a visual fault locator. The VFL

is a Class 2 laser. Class 2 lasers are considered safe for

normal operation, the output power is below 1 milliwatt. All

Class 2 lasers emit visible light only.

SAFE USE GUIDANCE - GENERAL

A Class 2 laser is relatively weak. It normally would not

harm an eye unless a person deliberately stared into the beam. Laser protective eyewear is normally not

necessary. A Class 2 laser is not a skin or materials burn hazard.

However, even a Class 2 laser can be a distraction, glare or flash blindness hazard for pilots and drivers.

NEVER aim any laser towards an aircraft or vehicle that is in motion. This is unsafe and is illegal.

Chapter 3 TLS Quick Start Guide

Prior to any operation please read the laser safety section of this chapter.

To operate the TLS at a speciﬁc wavelength/frequency/channel in CW mode follow this quick start

guide.

Touch the TLS icon on the Home screen.

The Laser Output is displayed in the center of the screen. Touch this value to cycle through units of,

Wavelength (nm), Frequency (THz) and Channel (Ch). 0.4nm (0.05THz), 0.8nm (0.10THz) or 1.6nm

(0.20THz).

Touch and hold the blue wavelength/frequency/channel selector on the scale. Drag the selector to

the desired output value.

Touch the step size indicator to cycle through step sizes until set at 0.40nm for wavelength, 50 GHz

for frequency or 0.5 Ch for channel is displayed.

Touch the power value and a numeric keypad will be displayed. Enter the desired power value within

the ranges set at the top of the display and touch OK.

Touch the Laser icon to energize the laser in a CW mode. Touch the Laser icon a second time to turn

off the laser.

Instrument Enclosure

The FTE6100 is packaged in a rugged housing which is further protected with a rubberized boot.

Although the front panel is weather resistant, care must be taken to avoid liquids and contaminants

around the fragile optical and electrical connectors, and the glass display. Use a mild cleaning agent

and soft damp cloth to clean up the panels and the outside case. See the maintenance section to

clean the optical connector. NEVER open the instrument for cleaning. Return to the factory for servic-

ing if necessary.
