Viewing the fiber chamfer with FiberChekPRO
You can visually analyze the fiber chamfer by using the
Chamfer Focus
tool to bring the fiber chamfer into focus
(
). The
Chamfer Focus Offset
setting lets you control the amount by which the chamfer is brought into
focus each time you apply the
Chamfer Focus
tool. Setting a lower value applies less focus than a higher value,
letting you bring the fiber chamfer into focus more gradually.
Notes:
•
The
Chamfer Offset
setting is available via the
Device Settings
option for the microscope. For information
about accessing the
Device Settings
option, see the
FiberChekPRO Automated Fiber Inspection and Analysis
