command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:[STATe]?
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:[STATe]?
description: Returns the state of a sweep.
parameters: none
response: +0:
+1:
Sweep is not running
Sweep is running
example: wav:swe? → +0<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules
command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:NEXT
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:NEXT
description:
Performs the next sweep step in stepped sweep if it is paused or in
manual sweep.
parameters: none
response: none
example: wav:swe:step:next
affects: All tunable laser modules
command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:PREVious
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:PREVious
description: Performs one sweep step backwards in stepped sweep if it is paused or in manual sweep.
parameters: none
response: none
example: wav:swe:step:prev
affects: All tunable laser modules
command:
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:[WIDTh]
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STEP:[WIDTh]<wsp>
<value>[PM|NM|UM|MM|M]
description: Sets the width of the sweep step.
In continuous sweep mode, the end of a step is used for triggering.
parameters: The width of the sweep step as a float value.
If you specify no units in your command, meters are used as the default.
response: none
example: wav:swe:step 5nm
affects: All tunable laser modules
