The
good folks at Advanced
Test Equipment Rentals have put together a pretty darn nice collection
of How-To videos for some of the equipment that they make available.
Examples are "How
to Use Anritsu MT9083A Optical Time Domain Reflector (OTDR)," "How
to Use a Kaelus iPA Passive Intermodulation (PIM) Tester," and "How
to use Fluke 435 II Power Analyzer." Even if you don't plan to use
the exact manufacturer and model, these videos are still useful for
tips on how to set up similar instruments and carry out measurements.
Operations manager Martin Jahn also has a short video where he explains
the significance of having obtained an ISO certification, and Kevin
Croppo explains the Benefits of Test Equipment Rental (see below). If
there are any other videos you would like to see, contact ATER and place
your request.
