Splice Mode Description
AUTO
This splice mode observes the core profile of the optical fiber, and
automatically identifies the fiber type being SM, MM or NZDS.
A set of splicing parameters is selected for the identified fiber type and
the fibers are automatically spliced. This is beneficial if the fiber type
is uncertain. The identified fiber type is displayed in the lower left
hand corner of the monitor.
The heat amount applied to the fiber is calibrated in real time by
analyzing the cladding illumination during arc discharge then adjusting
the arc current accordingly. This splice mode does not require operator
to perform an arc calibration.
Points to note of AUTO mode
(1) Fiber types that can be identified are standard SM, MM and
NZDS. However, some fibers with unique core profile may not
be correctly identified. If this is the case, the recommendation
is to use the other splice modes.
(2) NZDS fiber is spliced using the splicing mode for standard
NZDS. However, for best results, it is recommended that the
optimum splice mode be selected for a specific type of NZDS
fiber. This is due to the variation in the NZDS fiber properties
and optimum splicing parameters are different from one type of
NZDS fiber to the next.
(3) DS fiber is identified as NZDS when using AUTO mode.
