2、Placement ofoptical fibers Operation steps: ①Open protection cover from optical fiber lid ②Put the prepared fiber into the V-groove,and make sure that the end of the fiber is between the edge ofthe V-groove and the tip of the electrode (as shown in the figure below).
When〔Endface lnspection〕is on the,The fusion splicer will automatically check the fiber for damage and dust dust particles.Ifthe following conditions are detected in the fiber,Please remove the fiberand re-prepare it. note: When releasing fiber,Note the placement ofthe fiberinto the blue V-slot,The tip of the fiberis nearthe center ofthe electrode rod Center pointposition,Ifit is too far away or beyond the centeroftheelectrode rod,Both will prompt an error.
Splicing setting Splicing mode You can select the preset MM,SM,DS,NZDS four kinds ofsplicing mode,In addition,SET1,SET2, SET3and SET4 are provided forusers to set their own custom modes.
