Splice program Details
AUTO NanoTune Splicing can be performed by using not only the existing AUTO mode function but
the new NanoTune™ technique.
The NanoTune™ analyzes a fiber end face and automatically fine-tunes splice
condition to achieve an ideal splice.
Coping with poorly cleaved optical fiber, which cannot be spliced by conventional
splicers, the NanoTune™ can yield the best quality and low loss splices.
When the NanoTune™ is activated, a dedicated splice screen appears.
NanoTune™ enables to splice standard SMF (ITU-T G.652) and BIF (ITU-T G.657).

AUTO
Using Auto fiber Profiling check and Detection System (APDS*1), the splicer rec-
ognizes the type of a fiber loaded, automatically chooses the splice program that
matches the fiber, followed by splicing. Auto mode enables to splice standard SMF
(ITU-T G.652), MMF (ITU-T G.651), DSF (ITU-T G.653), NZDSF (ITU-T G.655),
and BIF (ITU-T G.657).
SM G652 Auto
Can be used to splice identical SMF (ITU-T G652). Choose the program when you
clear on the type of the fiber being spliced.
MM G651 Auto
Can be used to splice identical MMF (ITU-T G651). Choose the program when you
clear on the type of the fiber being spliced.
DS G653 Auto
Can be used to splice identical DSF (ITU-T G653). Choose the program when you
clear on the type of the fiber being spliced.
NZ G655 Auto
Can be used to splice identical NZDSF (ITU-T G655). Choose the program when
you clear on the type of the fiber being spliced.
BIF G657 Auto
Can be used to splice identical BIF (ITU-T G657). Choose the program when you
clear on the type of the fiber being spliced.
The product has splice programs pre-installed as a template. The programs are
optimized according to the optical fiber profiles. (▸P.2-9 Selecting splice program)
ATTENTION
● The recognizable fiber types are standard SMF, MMF, and Others.
● Fibers other than SMF, MMF are recognized as Others.
● Left and right fibers are recognized individually.
● The splicer stores data on representative core profiles of standard fiber
types. However it may sometimes incorrectly recognize other
manufacturers’ fibers and new design fibers. In this case choose a
suitable splice program by yourself.
● Even if fibers are sorted in the same category, suitable splice program is
sometimes different depending on the manufacturers or fibers. In this
case choose a suitable splice program by yourself.
*1: The splicer automatically recognizes the type of optical fiber loaded via image processing, checks
if a selected splice program matches the fiber, and displays the recognition result on the monitor.
This system prevents an operator from splicing with an incorrect splice program.
