Parameter
Description
Arc2 Power
In SM/DS/MM/NZ/AUTO modes the arc power is fixed at 40 bits.
Arc2 Time
Arc time is fixed at 1500 ms for SM and DS modes, 2000 ms for NZ mode, and
3000 ms for MM mode. This is automatically set depending on the fiber type
when AUTO mode is selected.
Edit Mode for Splicing
•
Fiber Type: Select or enter the name of fiber being spliced.
•
Mode Title1: Enter the name of the type of fiber.
•
Mode Title2: Enter alternate name of fiber.
•
Manual align: In manual mode the user can control the motors by hand.
•
Proof Test: Enable or disable the tension test after splicing.
•
Cleave Limit: Set or disable the cleave error limit in degrees.
•
Loss Limit: Set the splice loss level in dB.
•
Axis Offset Limit: Set or disable the axis offset error limit in degrees.
•
Cleaning Arc: Set or disable the duration of the cleaning arc.
•
Gap: Increase the gap if the fibers are “soft” and melt too easily. Decrease the gap if the fibers are “hard to melt”.
•
Gap Set: Set the gap closer to the larger diameter core fiber when splicing dissimilar-sized fibers. This may also
be necessary when splicing what the user may consider to be the same size fiber but the two fibers are from different
manufacturers.
•
Prefuse Power: Set or disable the power to the electrode during the initial fusing cycle.
•
Prefuse Time: Set or disable the duration of the prefuse cycle.
•
Overlap: Set or disable the overlap closer if the fibers are hard to splice or the core diameter is thick. (The harder the
closer, the thicker the closer; the softer the farther, the thinner the farther.)
•
Arc1 Power: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc1 power.
•
Arc1 Time: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc1 duration.
•
Arc2 Power: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc2 power.
•
Arc2 Time: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc2 duration.
•
Arc2 ON Time: Set or disable the Arc2’s working (arcing) duration.
•
Arc2 OFF Time: Set or disable the Arc2’s off duration.
•
Rearc Time: Set or disable the duration of the Rearc.
