FUSION SPLICER 90S Rev5
78
“Good” Message
Arc power and splicing position calibration have successfully completed.
Press RESET key to exit.
“Not Adequate” Message
Arc power and splicing position calibration are completed but further
calibration is strongly recommended, as the change from the previous arc
calibration is too large.
Press SET key to perform arc calibration, or RESET key (arc calibration is
not completed).
Diagnostic Test
The fusion splicer has a built in diagnostic test feature that allows the operator to
perform a simple one-step evaluation of fusion splicer performance covering
several different critical variables. Perform this function in the event of fusion
splicer operation trouble.
Operation procedure
1.
Select the Diagnostic Test icon in the [Maintenance Menu] and execute.
2.
Upon completion of all checks and adjustments, a list of results is displayed. If
the dust check result fails, clean the objective lenses. In the case that
cleaning doesn’t eliminate contamination, there is a possibility that the
contamination may have entered inside the optical path. Please contact the
nearest Fujikura authorized distributor for additional instructions.
3.
The dust check and motor calibration functions exist as independent
instructions in [Maintenance Menu]. It is possible to execute them
independently.
Check Item
Description
LED Check
Measures and adjusts the brightness of the illumination
LED.
Dust Check
Checks the optical path for dust/dirt and judges if it
adversely affects splice quality.
If contamination exists, this function indicates the
location.
Motor Calibration
Checks the Motor Limit Sensor.
Arc Calibration
Automatically calibrates the arc power factor and fiber
splicing position.
I/O Port Check
Checks for normal operation of the fusion splicer input
and output port.
Memory Check
Checks the internal fusion splicer memory.
It may take several times until “Good” depending on using
environment.
Number threshold can be set so that a "Test Finish"
message is displayed after specific number of arc
calibrations is performed. See section [Machine Settings]
for detail.
Before the start of the test, remove fibers from the fusion splicer.
When the Motor check is completed, prepare and load the fibers
into the fusion splicer and press SET key
Result: Good
Result: Not Adequate
