CLEAN ELECTRODES
Run the “CLEAN ELECTRODES”-program to remove dirt/oxide on the
electrodes.
Running this program will ignite an extra powerful spark which will burn
the electrodes clean.
The “CLEAN ELECTRODES” will also be shown automatically in the display
every 10 splices.
Run the program several times (1-3 times) for best result.
But not more than 5 times in a row. Then the splicer needs to cool for a
couple of minutes. If 5 times is not enough the problem is elsewhere.
CALIBRATE
This function shall be used often for automatic environmental
compensation.
This should be done every time the environment changes, for ex. when
starting a new workday, when coming back after lunch, when changing
the type of fiber cable to use.
Performing a
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.
