discharge level is too high the fiber ends

It sets initial time from the beginning of

initial discharge time relates to the amount
of time the flash burn to clean the fiber will

MODE
It sets duplication of optical fiber on optical
fiber’s advance amount. If [initial discharge
Overlap
amount] is weak or [initial discharge time] is
short, set the [overlap] somewhat small and
if discharge amount is strong and the time
is long, set it somewhat big.
Main discharge can be adjusted in 2 levels.
The first level of discharge is [discharge
Discharge Amount 1
amount 1] and the second is [discharge
amount 2]. [Discharge amount] 1 is set in
this
area.
Discharge Time 1
It sets time for [discharge amount 1].
[Discharge amount 2] is the second level of
Discharge Amount 2
discharge. [Discharge amount 2] is set in
this
area.
It sets time for [discharge amount 2].
Non-

It sets time for [discharge amount 2].
Discharge Time 2
[Discharge time 2] is generally set as “OFF.”
It can set the discharge time as a very long
time period but when [discharge time 1]
and [discharge time 2] exceed 30 seconds,
