SPLICING PROBLEM SOLVING
8.1|
WHEN LOSS IS HIGH
1|
Any dust or foreign substance on the fi ber surface may cause a poor splice.
•
Clean the fi ber surface suffi ciently.
•
Do not clean the fi ber after cleaving to prevent dust from being gathered in the fi ber cross section.
•
Lower fi bers into V-grooves rather than pushing in from the sides. Fiber holders will facilitate
proper insertion.

2|
Any foreign substance on V-groove hinders the correct alignment.
•
Keep the V-groove clean at all times.

3|
Electrode condition.
•
When an electrode contains an abrasion or its tip is bent and dirty, replace the electrodes.
4|
Arc amount and arc time are inappropriate.
•
Check the setting of arc amount and arc time to reset them with proper values.
•
Changes in arc time and amount are generally considered to be minor adjustments to factory settings.
5|
Inappropriate splice mode.
•
Check whether appropriate splice mode is selected for the fi ber.

ABNORMAL SPLICING OPERATION
1|
Alignment operation is repeated.
•
Open the wind cover again and then close.
•
If discontinues, open the wind cover, press
2|
The error message "Too Long Fiber" is continuously generated.
•
Turn off the power and contact UCLSWIFT.

SPLICE
1|
The error message displayed on the screen.
•
Refer to the Error message list.
2|
Splice loss is high or irregular.
•
Clean V-groove, V-block, refl ector and object lens by referring to [Maintenance of splice quality]. Replace
electrodes by referring to [Electrodes replace]. Refer to the "High estimated loss" from [Error message list].
•
If fi ber warps or is bent, place the fi ber bent direction to face the bottom. Splice loss varies depending on
cleaving angle, arc condition and cleanliness level of fi ber. If splice loss is still high or irregular even after
implementing these recovery measures, contact UCLSWIFT. Annual maintenance is required to maintain
optimal splice quality.
