Chapter 10 Maintenance 10.1 Daily Maintenance Before daily maintenance of the BERTWave, be sure to turn the power off and unplug it from the AC outlet. Panel surface dirt When surface dirt is noticeable, after the BERTWave has been used in a dusty environment, or when the BERTWave has not been used for an extended period of time, wipe its surface with a cloth moistened in detergent and wrung enough.
10.2 Replacement of Optical Connector 10.2 Replacement of Optical Connector The standard optical connector is the FC type. The optical connector of the plug-in unit and pull-out type optical sensor can be removed and replaced with another connector (sold separately), and its interior can be cleaned.
Page 316
Chapter 10 Maintenance To remove the optical connector: Open the cover. Pull up the connector lever toward you. Check that the latch has been released, and then, gently pull the connector out straight toward you. Latch Figure 10.2-2 How to Remove the Optical Connector 10-4...
10.3 Optical Connector/Optical Adapter Cleaning 10.3 Optical Connector/Optical Adapter Cleaning Cleaning the Ferrule End Surface Use an approved adapter cleaner to clean the ferrule end surface in the optical connector. The ferrule in the optical connectors needs periodic cleaning. Although the following procedures use the FC connector and adapter as an example, use the same methods when cleaning other connector and adapter types.
Page 318
Chapter 10 Maintenance Press the tip of a new (dry) adapter cleaner into the ferrule end surface and then wipe in one direction 2 or 3 times to dry the surface. Clean the adapter interior with adapter cleaner. (Refer to “Cleaning the optical adapter” below.) Attach the adapter in the reverse order.
Page 319
10.3 Optical Connector/Optical Adapter Cleaning Cleaning the Optical Fiber Cable Ferrule End Surface Use an approved ferrule cleaner to clean the optical fiber cable ferrule end surface. Although the following procedures use the FC connector and adapter as an example, use the same methods when cleaning other connector and adapter types.

Chapter 10 Maintenance 10.5 Updating Software To update the software, install the new software in the BERTWave. For how to install the software, refer to the document attached to the software. Start the BERTWave after installing the software, and then the version mismatch warning is displayed.
10.6 Touch Panel Position Calibration 10.6 Touch Panel Position Calibration Touch panel position may be misaligned depending on the changes of ambient environment (temperature/humidity). If the touch panel position is misaligned, calibrate the position using the following procedures. When calibrating the detecting position, use the sharp-nose stick but do not scratch the panel surface.
Page 324
Chapter 10 Maintenance Touch the center of the brown cross using the sharp-noise stick. The next cross to be touch is displayed in brown. Touch the four crosses, and then the property window of the touch panel is displayed. Touch the [OK] button. 10-12...
10.7 Cautions on Storage 10.7 Cautions on Storage Wipe off dust, fingerprint marks, stains, spots, etc. from the surface of the BERTWave before storing it. Fit the attached coaxial connector cover to the coaxial connector on the front panel. Also, put the cap on the optical connector. Put the power cord, CD-ROM and other accessories in the accessory box and store it with the main frame.
Chapter 10 Maintenance 10.8 Transporting and Disposal The following describes precautions for transporting and disposing of the BERTWave. Repackaging Repack the BERTWave in the packing material (box) in which it was delivered. If the packing material has been thrown away or damaged, repack the BERTWave in the following manner: Prepare a corrugated cardboard, wooden, or aluminum box large enough to pack cushioning material in around the BERTWave.
