Note: In AUTO mode, certain parameters cannot be changed.
Parameter Description
Arc Power In SM/DS/MM/NZ/AUTO modes the arc power is xed at 40 bits.
Arc Time Arc time is xed at 1500 ms for SM and DS modes, 2000 ms for
NZ mode, and 3000 ms for MM mode. This is automatically set
depending on the ber type when AUTO mode is selected.
Edit Mode for Splicing
• Fiber Type: Select or enter the name of ber being spliced.
• Mode Title1: Enter type of ber.
• Mode Title2: Enter alternate name of ber type.
• Align: Select Core, Clad or Manual options. In manual mode the user can control the
motors by hand.
• Proof Test: Enable or disable the tension test after splicing. Disable this for splice-on
connector use.
• Cleave Limit: Set or disable the cleave error limit in degrees.
• Loss Limit: Set or disable the splice loss notication level.
• Axis Offset Limit: Set or disable the axis offset error limit in degrees.
• Cleaning Arc: Set or disable the duration of the cleaning arc.
• Gap: Increase the gap if the bers are “soft” and melt too easily. Decrease the gap if
the bers are “hard to melt”.
• Gap Set: Set the gap closer to the larger diameter core ber when splicing
dissimilar-sized bers. This may also be necessary when splicing what the user
may consider to be the same size ber but the two bers are from different
manufacturers.
• Prefuse Power: Set or disable the power to the electrode during the initial fusing
cycle.
• Prefuse Time: Set or disable the duration of the prefuse cycle.
• Overlap: Set or disable the overlap closer if the bers are hard to splice or the core
diameter is thick. (The harder the closer, the thicker the closer; the softer the farther,
the thinner the farther.)
• Arc1 Power: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc1 power.
• Arc1 Time: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc1 duration.
• Arc2 Power: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc2 power.
• Arc2 Time: Increase or decrease or disable the Arc2 duration.
• Arc2 ON Time: Set or disable the Arc2’s working (arcing) duration.
• Arc2 OFF Time: Set or disable the Arc2’s off duration.
• Rearc Time: Set or disable the duration of the Rearc.
