Overlap
Set the overlap amount of fibers at the fiber propelling stage. Relatively
small [Overlap] is recommended if [Preheat Arc Value] is low, while relatively
large [Overlap] is recommended if [Preheat Arc Value] is high.
Clean Arc Time
A cleaning arc burns out micro dust on the surface of the fiber with an arc
discharge for a short period of time. The duration of the cleaning arc can be
changed by this parameter.
Preheat Arc Value
Set the prefuse arc power from the beginning of arc discharging to the
beginning of fibers propelling. If [Preheat Arc Value] is set too low, axial
offset may occur if cleaved angles are relatively poor. If [Preheat Arc Value]
is set too high, fiber end-faces are fused excessively and splice loss gets
worse.
Preheat Arc Time
Set the prefuse arc time from the beginning of arc discharging to the
beginning of fibers propelling. Long [Preheat Arc Time] and high
[Preheat Arc Value] lead to the same results.
Fuse Arc Value
Set arc power.
Fuse Arc Time
Sets arc time.
