Dust Check
The splicer observes fibers through image processing. Dust or contaminants on the
cameras, lenses and wind protector mirrors disturbs normal observation of fibers and
may result in improper splicing. This function checks the optical path for the presence
or absence of contaminants and judges whether they cause trouble for fiber splicing.
Operation Procedure
(1) Select the [Dust Check] in the [Maintenance Menu].
(2) If fibers are set in the splicer, remove them and press . again. The splicer begins
the dust check.
(3) The message “Now Checking” is displayed in the middle of the screen. After
observation, the location of contamination judged as a potential problem blinks. If
contamination is discovered, clean the wind protector mirrors and objective lenses
and redo [Dust Check]. Refer to the section of [Maintenance of Splicing Quality]
(Page 28) for cleaning instructions.
(4) Press to finish dust check.

Motor Calibration
Motors were adjusted at the factory before shipping. However, settings could change
due to various reasons. This function automatically calibrates the speed of all six
motors.
Operation Procedure
(1) Select the [Motor Calibration] in the [Maintenance Menu].
(2) Load prepared fibers in the splicer and press button.
(3) Speeds for all motors are automatically calibrated. Upon completion,
[Maintenance Menu 2] is displayed.
• In case you have cleaned or replaced the wind protector mirrors, and
have cleaned the objective lenses, and dirt or dust still remain, contact
your nearest sales agency.
• Perform this function when "Fat" or "Thin" error has occurred, or fiber
aligning or focusing is taking too much time.
