Abstract
A testing device includes a test port, a light source, a measurement element, and a controller. A method of testing an optical system with the testing device includes, and/or the testing device is configured for, measuring an unloaded reference signal when the testing device is not connected to the optical system and storing the unloaded reference signal in a memory of the testing device. The method and/or configuration also includes detecting a signal from the optical system after storing the unloaded reference signal. Based on the detected signal, it is determined that the optical system is connected to a test port of the testing device. A test of the optical system with the testing device is automatically initiated in response to determining that the optical system is connected to the test port of the testing device.
