command:
:CONFigure[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:WAVelength:STATe
syntax: :CONFigure[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:WAVelength:STATe<wsp>OFF(0) | ON(1)
description: Specifies whether the attenuator uses its λ offset table to compensate for wavelength de-
pendent losses in the the test set-up. This table contains, for each wavelength specified, the
additional power offset to be applied.
This command does not affect the module’s internal enviromental temperature and optical
wavelength compensation, which remain active.
parameters: OFF or 0
ON or 1
The offset table is not used to compensate for wavelength dependent losses.
The attenuator adds the appropriate value from its λ offset table to the global
power offset.
response: none
example: CONF1:OFFS:WAV:STAT ON
affects: All attenuator modules.
command:
:CONFigure[n][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:WAVelength:STATe?
syntax: :CONFigure[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:OFFSet:WAVelength:STATe?
description: Queries whether the attenuator uses power values from its λ offset table .
parameters: none
response: boolean 0 The offset table is not used.
1 The attenuator uses its λ offset table.
example: CONF1:OFFS:WAV:STAT? → 0<END>
affects: All attenuator modules.
