ADVANCED OPERATION - Splicing program structure: Splicing process
Hot core alignment
Pre-defined program: 05
A typical splicing sequence for the hot core alignment process
The FSU 995 FA employs hot image analysis and RTC in the hot core alignment process to
overcome the two main difficulties associated with highly eccentric cores. The first difficulty
is that the splicer must locate the cores and align them properly. The second difficulty is that
alignment of the eccentric cores inevitably means that the claddings will not line up. This
would not be such a problem in and of itself if it were not for the fact that the misalignment of
the claddings leads to surface tension during fusion that bends the fibers, and pulls the cores
back out of alignment.

FUSION CURRENT 2
is not specifically a hot core align-
ment paramenter, but you should take note that if you
choose a value of 0.0 mA, the current test sets this param-
eter automatically the same time it determines the RTC
CURRENT. Otherwise you will have to set it manually.

ACCEPTABLE OFFSET
regulates whether a RTC
sequence with its
compensentory elements or
a normal splicing sequence
will be used to splice the
fibers. It can be that the
offset measured in the first
part of the process is so
small (ie. is acceptable) that
it is just as well to line up the
claddings and splice nor-
mally.
RTC CURRENT
is the current applied to take
the hot images needed for
measurement of the eccen-
tricity of the fibers. You can
set it manually, or use the
current test (see p. 57), which
sets it automatically.
MAX. ECCENTRICITY
is used to decide whether
the fibers should be spliced
at all. To determine whether
the maximum allowable
eccentricity has been
exceded, the splicer takes
hot images before splicing. If
this reading is above the
value of the parameter, you
will receive a warning in the
monitor, and the splicing
sequence will stop.
Hot core alignment is de-
signed for single mode fibers
with a core to cladding ec-
centricity greater than 0.6
m
m.
To be able to line up and
splice fibers who are not
susceptible to the normal
splicing method of lining up
the claddings with the as-
sumption that the cores will
thereby also be aligned, the
FSU 995 FA makes use of hot
images and real time control
(RTC).
