Doing the Calibration!
- Strip one fiber which You are about to splice (strip it some 5-6cm).
- Clean the fiber with alcohol, isopropyl or similar. Make sure not to touch the
fiber with anything after cleaning as it will become dirty.
Place the stripped and cleaned fiber across the v-groove (see picture below).
You can see how the calibration should be done in our Video to be found at:
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/t1bwwrk0i9str6a/AAAKnje_Mvc-_SeXVUH1v0Jva?dl=0
Having placed the fiber in the v-groove enter the “Menu” again and step with “down-arrow”
to CALIBRATE.
Select it (large button) and the splicer will perform a calibration.
This is seen on the display as the splicer will ignite the spark and shine through the fiber
with various strength.
The operation is finished after some 5 seconds and the display will show “OK” if the
Calibration was done properly.
If not, the display will show the text: “CALIBRATE AGAIN”.
Time to splice!
•
Place fiber in the fiber holders (250 fibers in the
black holders
and 900
fibers/pigtails in the
blue holders
). The fiber should “stick-out” some 3-4cm.
- Don´t forget to put on a shrink-tube (sleeve) over one of the fiber-ends before You start!
