3.1 Turn On the Splicer
Press button on the operation panel, and wait the splicer to be turned on and move to Workbench page.
⚠ Note:
The LCD monitor is a precise component produced by manufacturing factory under strict quality control. However, some
tiny dots in different colors may still remain on the screen. Meanwhile, the screen brightness may not appear uniform,
depending on its viewing angles. Note that these symptoms are not defects, but are natural phenomenon.
3.2 Preparing the Fiber
3 steps should be carried out before splicing:
1. Stripping
Remove at least 50mm of secondary coating (valid for both tight and loose tube secondary coating) and approximately
30~40mm of primary coating with an appropriate stripper.
2. Clean bare fibers with pure alcohol-soaked gauze or lint-free tissue.
3. Cleave the fiber
In order to ensure the best splicing result, cleave the fbers with high precision cleaver such as INNO Instrument V series
fiber cleaver, and strictly control the cleaving lengths shown as below.
⚠ Note:
Always remember to slip a heat-shrinkable sleeve onto either end of the fibers at the
beginning of each fiber preparations.
⚠ Important!
Make sure that the bare fiber and its cleaved section are clean.
- Avoid putting the fibers down on a dusty working surface.
- Avoid waving the fibers around in the air.
- Check if the V-grooves are clean; if not, wipe them clean with pure alcohol-soaked
cotton swab.
- Check whether the clamps are clean; if not, wipe them clean with pure alcohol-soaked
cotton swab.
Use blue V-grooves
