2.1 Setting up the Transmitter 2.1 Setting up the Transmitter 1. Place the 7870T in the 7180M Chassis. 2. Apply AC power to the chassis. The Power Supply and Laser LEDs should be lit. 3. Using an optical power meter, measure the optical power. Insert the meter’s cable into the Transmitter’s optical connector. Power levels should be 0.5 mW minimum (-3 dBm). Alternatively, use a DVM to measure the voltage at: • 7180M Rackmount: Pins J13-P17 through J13-P24 for the slot being measured (See T
