2) The Fiber Optic Cable connects to the contact probe by means of a quick-
disconnect system. In order to attach the FOC, first locate the flat spot on the
metal fiber collar. This flat spot should face parallel to the right-hand side of the
probe as you look at it from behind. You may also verify that the fiber is oriented
correctly by looking through the fiber connection hole in the probe to view the
associated flat spot in the contact probe body. Once the fiber is roughly in the
right orientation, press the metal collar into the hole in the contact probe until a
click is heard. Test the connection by pulling gently on the fiber collar—this
should not cause the fiber to release from the probe.
To remove the fiber from the probe, depress the stainless steel tab on top of the
probe by pressing gently on the center of the tab. The fiber should spring free of
the probe body.
