General: Locate optic modules as indicated on the approved detail drawings and install module in compliance with the IFS installation and operations manual. TESTING Testing the Fiber Optic Video Link. Verify that the coax and optic fibers are properly connected. Make sure that power is applied to all fiber optic modules, camera, and video monitor or other equipment used in the system. The carrier detect indicator LED should be lit confirming a presence of a carrier signal. Successful link operation should be visible at this point as witnessed by a good quality video picture on the monitor. Testing the Fiber Optic Audio Link Verify that the audio leads and optical fibers are properly connected. Make sure that power is applied to all fiber optic modules, Pre-amplifiers, amplifiers or other equipment used in the system. Successful audio link operation should be confirmed at this point. Testing the Fiber Contact Closure Link. Verify that the contact leads and optical fibers are properly connected. Make sure that power is applied to all fiber optic modules, controllers, and receiver drivers or other equipment used in the system. Successful contact closure operation should be confirmed at this point. CLEANING Follow all instructions for proper use of solvents and adhesives used for termination and splicing. At completion of the installation, dispose of all fiber scraps properly.
