Common parameters for all modes for splicing can be set.
[Splice Mode] screen appears when selecting the Splice Mode icon at
[READY] screen.
How to change the splice mode.
1.
When selecting the listed icon at [Splice Mode] screen, the color of
the icon changes to blue and the splice mode is changed.
2.
Press RESET icon to return to the [READY] screen.
Splice Mode
The optimal splice setting for a specific fiber combination consists of the splicing
parameters listed below. In other words, the optimal splicing parameters depend
on the fiber combinations, and are different from fiber to fiber.
Parameters for controlling arc discharge.
Parameters for calculating estimated splice loss.
Parameters for controlling fiber alignment and splicing procedures.
Threshold for error messages.
A series of optimal splice parameters for major fiber combinations are already
stored in the splicer. These parameters are stored in the database area and can
be copied to the user-programmable area. These splice parameters can be
edited for a specific fiber combination.
How to select the “Splice mode”
[AUTO SM/NZ/DS/BIF/MM]
Use this mode if the fiber type is not identified.
[SM AUTO] and others
Use this mode if the fiber type is identified.
[SM FAST] and others
Use this mode if the fiber type is identified and prefer quick splice
with high yield to consistent splice loss.
[SM-SM] and others
Use this mode for splicing special fibers. This mode enables to
set specific parameters for each splicing. Execute [Arc
Calibration] before using this mode.
