Ericsson FSU 995 F - Quick Character Selection; Global Parameters: Program 00

ADVANCED OPERATION - Special functions: Quick character selection
Quick character selection
D
The character selection
method described for defin-
ing a program name (p. 47) is
effective but can be a little
slow, so it is advantageous to
learn the adjacent shorthand.
Quick character selection
can not be used in isolation
since not all characters are
available, but it can faciliate
entering information into the
splicer.
Do NOT press the buttons
ON/OFF, ENTER or FUSE
when using quick character
selection.

If you set the program number to 00 (follow instructions on page 14) and enter the key number
“99.5,” you gain access to the global parameters, which are the parameters that control the
general functioning of the splicer. The organization in sub-groups is repeated by the order of
editing you will find in flow chart form in Appendix C.
Parameter Function Range Default
ENGLISH VERSION? Mulitple value parameter for the 0 to 12 ENGLISH (=0)
language of display. Different
splicers have different sets of
languages.
DISPLAY GAP ANGLE* Stop during alignment to display ON/OFF OFF (=NO)
the view and gap angles.
ALTITUDE* For current compensation at -2.00 to +8.00 km 0.00 km
altitudes other than sea level.
MAX GAP ANGLE If gap angle greater than this 0

parameter’s value (because of
dust in V-grooves or fiber
bending) a warning is given.
STOP AT FUSION If ON, the splicing sequence will ON/OFF OFF (=NO)
be paused after alignment.

DISPLAY ANGLES and ALTITUDE will be described in greater detail on pages 63 and 64.
Note that a change to a global parameter will affect all splicing programs!
