Message 

Reason 

Solution 

L-Too Long  
Fiber 

The cleave length (bare 

fiber part) is too long. 

Dust or dirt is on the 

objective lens. 

Confirm the setting position of the stripped fiber 

end on the fiber cleaver.  Check the cleave 
length. 

Execute the [Dust Check].  Clean the lens when 

dust or dirt exists. 

R-Too Long 
Fiber 

LR-Too Long 
Fiber 

X-Dark 
Back Ground 

Dust or dirt is on the 

objective lens. 

The LED or Camera 

might be damaged. 

Execute the [Dust Check].  Clean the lens when 

dust or dirt exists. 

Consult your distributor. 

Y-Dark 
Back Ground 

L-Too Dusty 
Fiber 

Dust or dirt is on the fiber 

surface. 

Dust or dirt is on the 

objective lens. 

[Cleaning Arc] time is too 

short or “OFF.” 

Splicing indistinct core 

fibers with the SM or DS 
modes. 

[Align] is set to “Core” to 

splice indistinct core 
fibers when using other 
splice modes. 

[Focus] is incorrectly set 

when using other splice 
modes. 

Completely prepare the fiber again (strip, clean 

and cleave). 

Execute the [Dust Check].  Clean the lens if dust 

or dirt exists. 

Set the [Cleaning Arc] time to “150ms”. When 

splicing carbon coated fibers, set to “200ms”. 

Use the MM mode to splice indistinct core fibers 

(i.e. MM fiber). 

Set [Align] to “Clad” to splice indistinct core 

fibers (i.e. MM fiber). 

Set [Focus] to “Edge” to splice indistinct core 

fibers (i.e. MM fiber). To splice distinct core 
fibers, “Auto” or the correct focus value should 
be entered.
