M7+ User Manual | 13 3.4 How to Protect the Splice After splicing, put the fiber with heat-shrink sleeve into the heater. Press [Heat] button to start the heating process. Heating Procedure • Open the heater lid • Open the left and right fiber holders. Hold the heat-shrink sleeve (previously placed onto the fiber). Lift the spliced fibers and hold them tight. -
Page 14: Chapter 4 Splice Mode
VIEW 5 Pro Chapter 4 - Splice Mode M7+ has a variety of simple but very powerful splice modes which define arc currents, splice times as well as various parameters used when performing a splice. It is essential to select the correct splice mode. There are a number of “Preset” splice modes for common fiber combinations. -
Page 15: General Splicing Steps
M7+ User Manual | 15 4.3 General Splicing Steps This section explains the steps involved in automatic splicing process and describes how various splice mode parameters are related to this process. The normal splicing process can be divided into two sections: pre-fusion and fusion. Pre-Fusion During pre-fusion, the splicer performs automatic alignment and focusing, where the fibers are subject to a low pre- fusion current for cleaning purposes;... -
