Manually selecting the Launch and Receive Events - DTX Compact OTDR Module
If necessary, you can manually select the launch and receive events on the Event Table screen, as follows:
- Run the Launch Compensation function.
- Set the launch/receive events: Caution: Do not set the launch or receive event to a hidden event. Do not set the receive event to an event followed by a hidden event. Doing so may make length and loss results unreliable.

- Next, highlight the event that is the beginning of the receive fiber; then press F3 Set Receive or F3 Move Receive.
- To see where the markers are set on the trace, press F1 View Trace.
