Splice Mode:
Set the parameters of splice mode.
Maintain:
Electrode maintenance, arc correction, calibration, etc.
System:
Set the display parameters, system language & time, restore
to initial settings, etc.

FUNCTION SETTINGS MENU
Sleeve heating mode:
Set the sleeve heating time.
Fast ArcTest Mode:
If this is set "on", after splice is completed, the equipment
adjusts arc current and tension test.
Tension Test:
If this is set “on”, after splice is completed, the equipment will
restore and Tension test will perform itself.
Reset Waiting
Time:
If the Tension test is set “off”, the system will restore the
equipment after the waiting time is over.
Auto Starting:
If it is set “on”, it will perform a splice itself when the cover is
closed.

MENU INTRODUCTION
Align Offset
Threshold:
An error message is displayed if the misalignment of the two
fibers spliced exceeds the misalignment limit. The setting
range is 0.0-1.5 µm.
Loss Threshold:
An error message is displayed if the estimated splice loss
exceeds the loss limit. The setting range is 0-0.2db.
Compensation arc
Time:
Splice loss may be improved by compensative arc in some
cases.
Fiber Alignment
Mode:
Cladding align or core align can be set.
Fast Splice Mode:
If it is "on" it accelerates the alignment.
An error message is displayed if the clamp angle of the two
fibers spliced exceeds the angle threshold. The setting range
is 0-4°.
Fiber Angle
Threshold:
Fiber type:
Set according to the type of fibre used such as SM (single
mode), MM (Multimode), DS (Dispersion shifted), NZDS (Non-
zero dispersion shifted). Each fibre type can have up to 30
fusion splice pre-set programs. Other available fibre types are
BIF (Bend Insensitive Fibre), UBIF (Ultra-Bend Insensitive
Fibre), EDF (Erbium Doped Fibre) and G.657B3 (Bend
Insensitive Single-Mode fibres).
Splice Operate
Mode:
Automatic, Semi-automatic or Manual.
Splice Program No.:
30 groups preset splice program and 80 groups of users-set
splice program.
Edit Splice
Program:
Edit splice parameters under the current number of program.
Clean Arc Time:
It cleans dust on the fiber surface by short-time arc. The
duration ranges from 0 to 200 ms.
Surface Angle
Threshold:
An error message is displayed if the head face angle of either
left or right side of fiber exceeds the angle threshold. The
setting range is 0-8°.
