Basic Operation
]
(3)
After measuring the cleave angle, etc., press the key and an arc discharge is
performed to splice the fibers.
(4)
Estimated splice loss is displayed upon completion of splicing. Splice loss is
affected by certain factors, such as MFD, stated in the next page. These factors
are taken into account to estimate splice loss.
If either the measured cleave angle or the estimated splice loss exceeds its set
point limit, an error message is displayed.
If the spliced fiber is detected as being abnormal, such as "Fat", "Thin", or
"Bubble", an error message is displayed.
If no error message is displayed but the splice looks poor by visual inspection of
the image on the monitor, it is strongly recommended to repeat the splice from
the beginning.
Splice loss may be improved in some cases by additional arc discharges.
Press for an additional arc discharge (re-arc). Splice loss estimate and splice
check are performed again.
• The splice point sometimes looks a bit fatter than other parts. This is
considered a normal splice, and does not affect splice loss.
• To change the threshold for estimated splice loss or cleave angle, see [Splice
Mode] (Page 30) for details.
• Error messages, such as "Estimated splice loss", "Splice angle", "Fat",
"Thin", and "Bubble" can be ignored. This function can be set to "disabled".
See [Splice Option] (Page 44) for details.
• Splice loss may be worsened in some cases by additional arc discharges
(re-arcs). Additional arc discharge can be set to "disabled", or limited to the
number of additional arcs. See [Splice Option] (Page 44) for details.
