Trace
Wavepoint provides several ways to trace the fiber network. You can trace fiber connectivity, with or without a designated circuit. You can run Full Path and OTDR traces from ports and splice points. Further, you can run a trace through a splitter, and you have the opportunity to direct the trace path on the input or output side of the splitter. All traces provide summary details of the results and a one-line diagram of the trace path. Finally, all this information can be printed, including the diagrams.
IMPORTANT: Regarding any trace below, if
after the trace you receive the error message, “Error loading
trace data: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error
occurred on a receive,” the most likely reason is that the
fiber data is not converted to use ArcFM Objects. While unlikely,
this can occur if - at a company level - your GIS data was migrated
or the fiber network was rebuilt. Have an administrator visit the
Configuration Guide topic Verify Fiber Data is Converted to Use ArcFM Objects to investigate.
