5.5.8 Splice Process List
The Splice Process List contains the process /
command sequence executed by the "One Button
Process". See section 5.10
for more information.
5.5.9 Camera Image
The Camera Image displays a live video feed from the GPX camera. The image below shows the GPX in side view
(front or back). Front and back views are provided with the help of mirrors on the mirror tower, and back-lighting via
LED’s in the ring illuminator. The camera can also view the fiber directly. This is accomplished by using "Center
View" in the Camera Toolbar. In this case the fiber will be backlit by an LED in the mirror tower. The GPX is also
capable of viewing fibers end-on in "Left" or "Right" view. This, too, is accomplished with mirrors on the mirror tower,
but in this case the illumination comes from light injected into the fibers in the fiber holding block lids. Sometimes
an external light source can be used to better illuminate the end-face of a large fiber or rod.
The camera image resizes to the image window which can change the aspect ratio. This becomes apparent when
the end of a fiber is imaged and appears oval rather than circular. To view the image in its original format, click in
the image window and activate "Horizontal Scrollbar" and "Vertical Scrollbar." Doing so will force every pixel from
the camera to be treated as one pixel on the screen.
Right-clicking in the image window allows users to turn the cross-hairs and alignment guides on or off, or to save
an image as a bitmap or a PNG.
