An error message is displayed if the estimated splice
loss exceeds the selected threshold (loss limit).
A cleaning arc burns out micro dust on the surface of
the fiber with an arc discharge for a short period of
time. The duration of the cleaning arc can be changed
by this parameter.
Sets the end-face gap between the left and right fibers
at the time of aligning and pre-fusion discharge.
Sets the relative position of the splicing location to the
center of electrodes. Splice loss may be improved in
the case of dissimilar fiber splicing by shifting [Gapset
Pos] towards a fiber whose MFD is bigger than the
other fiber MFD.
Sets the power of the pre-fusion arc, which is an arc
discharge occurring from the beginning until the fibers
begin stuffing. If [Pre-fusion Power] is set too low,
axial offset may occur if cleaved angles are relatively
poor. If [Pre-fusion Power] is set too high, fiber end
faces are fused excessively and splice loss gets worse.
Sets the duration of the pre-fusion arc, which is arc
discharge occurring from the beginning until the fibers
begin stuffing. Longer [Pre-fusion Time] is
synonymous with higher [Perfusion Power].
Sets the overlap amount of fibers at the fiber stuffing
stage. Relatively small [Overlap] is recommended if
the [Pre-fusion Power] is low, while relatively large
[Overlap] is recommended if the [Pre-fusion Power] is
high.
Arc discharge can be separated into two stages. Arc1
Power is the first stage. This sets Arc1 Power.
Sets Arc1 time.
Caution If Arc1Time is set 1 sec. or less and Arc2
Power is set to "OFF", the splice may break
during proof-test stage.
Arc2 is the second arc discharge stage. This sets Arc2
Power.
Sets the total Arc2 time. Usually set this value to "OFF".
It is possible to set a very long arc time. However, when
