Setting up your fiber inspection microscope

and VUE2:

The app will open the following screen. The following diagram explains the various functionality in the app:

Tap the User Name button to set the name of the operator, followed by OK (or Cancel to leave unchanged)



Tap the Location button to set the location of the fiber being tested (Press OK to set, or Cancel to leave unchanged)

The Settings button allows the operator to change the following:

a. Enable/Disable Sounds. b. Create a PDF report each time the Capture button is pressed. c. Create an image of the end-face each time the Capture button is

pressed.



Press the Mode button to select the type of connector being tested. The mode button will then select mode.

Once inspection mode has been selected, adjust the “focus” by turning the focus

wheel on the Smart Probe to obtain good image quality. The Image Quality Meter

can be used as a reference point to obtain high quality image.

In addition the “focus indicator”, which is displayed in the left part of the window,

indicates whether the current view is optimized for a capture. A green indicator

shows a picture that can be captured and analysed. Analysis will be more difficult

with a blue indicator, and impossible with orange indicator.

Poor Focus (Example)



Inspecting Fiber Ends and Analyzing Captures:

For inspection of fiber end-face, adjust focus (Image quality at least 80%) and

press the Process button. After few seconds the image will be analyzed and any

defects will be highlighted in red.

Tap the Info Panel (in this case where the result is displayed as PASS). This will

display a table of defects found, based on each Zone.
