Analyzing Captures
With the capture analysis option (FIP-420B and FIP-430B), you can perform
automated pass/fail analyses according to the criteria you have set.
Note:
Analysis is not available for the FIP-410B.
Depending on the fiber probe that you have, you may have access to the
following features:
auto centering: The auto centering displays the fiber in the middle of
the image. It is compatible with all connector types and fiber with a
cladding of 125
μ
m. The auto centering is enabled only in high
magnification. Working with the auto centering feature can be useful
with standard connectors. When inspecting special connectors, it is
also possible to uncheck the auto centering check box.
auto focus: The auto focus focuses on the connector image. It is
enabled if the auto centering is activated and only in high
magnification. The auto focus is only possible in Live video mode and if
the focus is not done manually. It starts automatically when you insert
an optical fiber connector. For more information, see
auto capture: The auto capture is possible with an acceptable focus
level. It is enabled if the auto centering and auto focus are activated.
The auto capture is possible only in high magnification. For the
FIP-430B probe, the auto capture is not displayed when a multifiber
connector is selected.
auto analysis: The auto analysis displays 4 inspection zones: core,
cladding, adhesive, and contact. It is enabled only in high
magnification. When a multifiber connector is selected, the auto
analysis is available for zone A and B only.
