Getting Started
Product Description
The PCMCIA-based YOPM100 and the YOPM200 Optical Power
Meters operate with the NetTek Analyzer platform. You can measure
all common telecommunication wavelengths from 850 nm to
1625 nm and easily save the me asurement data to document
networks. YOPM lets you store and view multiple tests in a
configurable table. This lets you match your system pa tch panel
configuration for easy recovery and analysis of measurements. You
can collect and store your measurements in a table that matches the
way your patch pa nel is laid out. You can combine YOPM stored
tests with TARGET1 analysis software to generate complete
installation and maintenance reports.

Getting Started
Installing YOPM Application
If you ordered your power meter separately from your NetTek
Analyzer, you may need to install the YOPM application onto your
NetTek Analyzer.
If your NetTek Analyzer has a floppy-disk drive, install the software
directly on the NetTek Analyzer. See Installing From the NetTek
Analyzer Built-in Floppy-disk Drive below.
If your NetTek Analyzer does not have a built-in floppy-disk drive,
download the software using the floppy drive on a PC, and then
transfer the file through the serial port to the NetTek Analyzer. See
Installing From a PC Floppy-disk Drive on page 3.
Installing From the NetTek Analyzer Built-in Floppy-disk Drive
1. Select Start > Programs > Tektronix Utilities > Module
Upgrade.
2. Insert the floppy. Select Next.
3. The dialog box, Continuing Upgrade Process, will appear stating
“Found Upgrade File: \FloppyDisk\InstallYOPM.arq.”
(If the correct file is not found, select Browse to manually select
\FloppyDisk\InstallYOPM.arq and press OK.)
4. Select Next. It will take a few moments for the files to be
extracted and installed.
When installation is complete, the dialog box, Module Upgrade
Complete, appears.
5. Remove the floppy disk.
6. Select Restart Now.

Installing From a PC Floppy-disk Drive
Use a desktop computer with a floppy-disk drive and Windows 95,
98, NT 4.0, 2000, or ME operating system.
You will need a serial cable and an available COM port. You also
need to have active WinCE services or an ActiveSync connection to
transfer files. Enable WinCE services using the Windows CE
Services > Communications tab.
1. Connect the NetTek Analyzer to the remote PC:

standard accessory with the NetTek Analyzer) to the serial
(COM) port on the PC. See your computer documentation
for the port location.
b. Connect the other end of the cable to the NetTek Analyzer
serial port. See Figure 1 for the port location.
