ADVANCED OPERATION - Splicing program structure: Parameters
Program parameters
D
The program parameters are the variables used by each
splicing program to guide the splicing sequence. The FSU
995 FA distinguishes three sets of program parameters: the
general parameters, the control parameters and the splicing
parameters. The following tables will list all of these param-
eters, along with their ranges of possible values and default
values.
General parameters
The general parameters hold information that concerns the overall structure of
the splicing program.
Parameter Function Range Default
PROGRAM NAME Max 16 character name All characters empty
except ā@ā
KEY NUMBER Max 3-digit security code 000 to 999 000
SECURITY TYPE 0 = Open (available to all) 0 to 2 Open (=0)
1 = Read only
2 = Confidential
FIBER TYPE Specifies fiber type: 0 to 5 Standard fiber
0 = Standard fiber (=0)
1 = Titanium fiber
2 = Depress. clad. fiber
3 = Erbium doped fiber
4 = Invisible core fiber
5 = Multimode fiber
PROCESS TYPE* Specifies splicing process: 0 to 4 Normal splicing
0 = Normal splicing (=0)
1 = Hot core alignment *
2 = Mode field matching
3 = Attenuator making
4 = Pulling or tapering
Choose the Hot core alignment process if you are to use the Small core alignment process.
