Chapter 1 Description The FS200 Fiber Microscope produces a high-quality, low-distortion image of both the connector end and the fiber. With a high intensity coaxial illumination system and a 200X magnification, this microscope is powerful enough to offer a clear image of the fiber core as well as the surrounding cladding. In addition, there is the option to use an oblique illumination setting which provides illumiation at an off-center angle to the fiber end face.
Fiber Microscope Chapter 2: Operation Chapter 2 Operation 1. Insert the terminated fiber into the fiber insert entrance of the adapter. Press the LED switch, it will work in CL (coaxial illumination) mode. Press and hold for 3 seconds to change to OL (oblique illimunation) mode.
FS200. Since many of the wavelengths of light used in the fiber optic industry are invisible to the naked eye, the natural aversion reflex to viewing bright light is suppressed, resulting in potentially longer periods of accidental exposure, which can lead to permanent eye damage.
