When the fiber is made thin, the splice loss is sometimes increased.
This pulling function is set to “OFF.” The following 3 parameters decide the
pulling shape.
It designates the time period from the last of the advanced fiber
amount to the beginning of pulling.
It sets the fiber pulling speed.
It sets the fiber pulling time.
It is the sum of the initially measured splice loss value and the increased loss.
When splicing a special fiber or other fibers, high loss may be incurred in
spite of optimum arc conditions. To match the estimated splice loss and the
actual splice loss, the minimum value of actual splice loss should be set.

SELECTION
Press
to save the selected splice mode to memory and use upon splicing.
6.1.6
CLOSE
Press
to return to the previous stage.
Displays the list of splice mode that is saved on the splicer data to facilitate
the selection of a proper mode for use. Among splice modes saved on the
database, it copies a similar splice mode to use an editing function.
Mode title 1 is for indicating splice mode within 11 characters at a maximum.
The closer fibers are aligned to the core center with a fewer number of
errors, the quicker and better the arcing is done.
Conducts tensile force test after splice.
Sets the cleaved angle’s error limit. When either of the cleaving angles on
both fibers are outside the limit., an error message is displayed.
Sets the estimated loss value’s error limit. When estimated loss is higher
than the limit, error message is displayed.
When the bending of 2 spliced fibers exceeds the set limit, an error
message is displayed.
A short arc cleaning is conducted to remove fine dust on the fiber surface
upon initial stage of fiber alignment. It sets the intensity of the cleaning arc.
It sets the time for the cleaning arc.
Upon final alignment, it sets the clearance of the cross section between
both fibers.
It sets location of fiber spliced at the center of arc. When MFD of both
fibers differs, do the sealing procedure by melting the smaller MFD fiber
more than the bigger MFD fiber. To heat the smaller MFD fiber more,
splice loss can be lowered by moving the clearance location toward the
bigger MFD fiber at the center of arc.
It sets initial arc amount from the beginning of arc before the fiber is
advanced. If the value of initial arc amount is too low, the angle of the
fiber cross section is poor and consequently, an offset can be incurred
on the axis if it is too high, the fiber can made round or burnt too much
and, consequently, the splice loss value can be big.
It sets the initial time from the beginning of the arc before the fiber advance.
If [Prefuse time] is long, it means the same that [initial arc amount] gets big.
It sets the duplication of the fiber on for the fiber advance amount.
If [Prefuse Power] is weak or [Prefuse time] is short, set the [overlap] to
somewhat small and if the arc amount is strong and the time is long, set it
to somewhat big.
Main arc can be adjusted by 2 levels. The first level of arc is [Arc1 Power]
and the second is [Arc2 Power]. [Arc1 Power] is set in this area.
It sets the time for [Arc1 Power].
[Arc2 Power] is the second level of arc. [Arc2 Power] is set in this area.
It sets the time for [Arc2 Power]. It sets the time for [Arc2 Power].
[Arc time 2] is generally set as “OFF.” It can set the arc time as a very long time
period but when [Arc1 Time] and [Arc2 Time] exceed 30 seconds,
the electrodes can be damaged.
While [Arc2 Power] is on arc, you can set the arc amount as “ON” and “OFF”
in turn. The time period for [Arc2 Power] being “On” is set in this area.
For re-arc, set the arc time as “ON” at all times.
It sets the time period for the arc of [Arc2 Power] when it is turned off.
When [Arc2 Power] is occasionally stopped, re-arc can also be stopped.
When re-arc is continuously required, set as to “OFF.”
It sets re-arc time. Within [splice mode edition], it automatically sets to arc
Rearc Time
the re-arc amount with the same intensity as that of [Arc2 Power].
If [Arc2 Power] is set as ON/OFF, re-arc is automatically changed.
