Comptyco Manuals & User Guides

Comptyco (Shenzhen Comptyco Trading Co., Ltd.) is a specialized manufacturer of fiber optic communication and testing equipment. The brand provides a comprehensive array of diagnostic tools designed for network technicians and engineers involved in the installation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of optical fiber networks.

Their product lineup centers on high-precision handheld instruments, including Optical Time Domain Reflectometers (OTDR) like the AUA series, which often combine multiple functions—such as Visual Fault Locators (VFL), Optical Power Meters (OPM), and Stable Light Sources (OLS)—into a single compact unit. Comptyco also produces essential fiber preparation tools, including thermal strippers and high-precision fiber cleavers. Known for offering professional-grade functionality with intuitive touchscreen interfaces, Comptyco aims to simplify complex fiber analysis for field operations.

• How do I use the VFL function on my Comptyco tester?

  Select the Visual Fault Locator (VFL) function from the main menu. This activates a red laser light (typically 650nm) used to visually identify breaks, bends, or faulty connectors in the fiber optic cable.

• What is the Event Map function on Comptyco OTDRs?

  The Event Map simplifies OTDR traces by converting complex waveforms into icons. It visually displays events such as start points, splices, connectors, and breaks, making it easier to interpret fiber link status without advanced technical knowledge.

• How do I charge my Comptyco handheld device?

  Most portable Comptyco OTDRs and testers feature a Type-C USB port for charging. Connect the device to a standard USB power adapter or computer port using the provided cable.

• Can Comptyco OTDRs save test results?

  Yes, models like the AUA-18U/A allow users to save test data internally. Results can often be exported to a computer via USB for report generation and further analysis.
