10: Encircled Flux Compliance (multimode only)

At the LINK INFORMATION screen, use the up and down arrows to navigate the entry fields, and use the right arrow to select the appropriate setting.

This procedure assumes the 1-jumper reference method, so make sure REFERENCE METHOD is set to 1-jumper.

NOTE about connections:
The SOURCE PORT and OPM PORT test cord settings entered in the previous step automatically count against the total number of connections in the link.

So, when entering the number of connections in this step, only count the connections that are in the middle of the link. This number will be 0 in most cases, unless testing through multiple cross-connected segments or consolidation points.

NOTE about splices:
Include any mechanical or fusion splices in the link, including splice-on and mechanical splice terminations.
