Light conductor identification method - measuring intensity of light passing through from non-ordered end to ordered end

摘要

A method of indentifying light conductors when light conductors are freely accessible at both ends of a light conductor cable involves using a light source (4) at one end and a receiver at the other. At one end (1.11) the conductors are not in an ordered arrangement and are illuminated in sections via masks (2). At the other end the positions of the individual conductors is determined, the light intensity or transmissivity measured and recorded and used to identify the individual conductors. USE/ADVANTAGE - For printing, textile, film industries. The individual light conductors in a cable can be selected and ordered rapidly and at low cost.
