Proof test
Automatic proof test
After fusion splicing is complete, the splicer performs a proof test to verify
the tensile strength of the splice.
Open the hood or tap the Set icon to start the proof test. (Once started, the
proof test cannot be cancelled.)
When the proof test is complete, the screen as shown above is
displayed.

Procced with the heating process. See the next page.
Manual proof test
Take care to keep the spliced fiber straight. Do not flex it back and forth. Doing so will
cause the spliced fiber to be broken, resulting in loss of the long term reliability of the
fiber.
1: Open the hood.
