Fiber Optics
Step-by-Step Install Instructions
STEP 1.) Use dykes or fiber optic cutter to cut 2-2
inches pieces of the fiber optic cable off to use as
spacers in the lightbox to keep the fiber optic cable
tight.
STEP 2.) Take razor knife ( or razor blade) and
make a 3 inch long slit in the shielding of the fiber
optic cable. pull the shielding back and cut the 3 inch
piece of outside shielding off completely.
STEP 3.) Next take the raw fiber optics now
exposed since you cut off the shielding and use your
dykes to make all of the fibers even on the end
STEP 4.) Make sure fiber optic holding nut is
loose on the fiber optic lightbox and insert the raw
fiber optic fibers (no shielding) into the lightbox and
insert your spacers you made at the beginning to keep
all the fibers tight and where you want them.
STEP 5.) Adjust the fiber optic cable in or out
of the lightbox until you get the desired affect
(farther in make the stars flicker more , further out
makes the stars fade from one color to another) then
just tighten down the fiber optic holding nut on the
lightbox.
STEP 6.) Plug the transformer into a standard 110
outlet and turn on the lightbox and you are done. |
