The Fiber Microscope comes fully assembled and requires only a few steps before it is ready to use .

User Safety Warning
DO NOT use the fiber microscope to view active fiber signals under ANY circumstances.Active fiber signals contain laser light ,and direct eye contact with laser light should be avoided.The failure to avoid direct eye contact with laser light can result in serious damage to the eye.The Fiber Microscope may magnify the laser light in active fiber signals;direct eye contact with magnified laser light should be avoided.Laser safety filters,as used on the Fiber Microscope,are no substitute for practicing good laser safety.If you are unfamiliar with laser safety practices,seek out professional training .There are many capable trainers working in the fiber optic field who can help.
Operation
In this manual ,we will explain general use of the Fiber Microscope .However,it is important to read the specific termination instructions published by the manufacturer of the connector you are using.This will ensure proper termination.Also,be sure you have read the User Safety Warning and fully understand that direct eye contact with laser light and magnified laser light should be avoided.
1, Begin by loading the polished connector into the adapter .If you have purchased our Universal Adapter ,simply slide the connector ferrule(2.5mm)into the hole until you feel it hit a stop (see figure3).it may require a little pressure to get it started as our Universal adapter is equipped with a no-slip gripping mechanism.it is important to slide the connector ferrule all the way to the stop.This will minimize any refocusing that needs to be done when changing from one connector to the next .if you have purchased one of the dedicated adapters,insert the connector just as you would into a patch bay or mated connector.
Now turn the light on.The light operates by pressing and holding the light Switch in .You can tell if the light is on by checking the "Backlight Window"(see figure1). If you see light through this window ,you are ready to work .Once the connector is loaded and the light is on,hold the eyepiece up to your eye and begin focusing.Unlike many instruments of this type,the Fiber Microscope is always centered so there is no alignment to be done .Grip the focusing adjustment(brass wheel with rubber grip,see figure#1) and turn it to
