When Level Detection Type is set to Point, the optical signal level
(L
S
,
Lin
) is calculated by the following formula:
When the Signal Level is set at [Signal],
(W)
When the Signal Level is set at [Signal–Noise],
(W)
P(λsig): level at detected optical signal wavelength
N(λsig): noise level at optical signal wavelength
When Level Detection Type is set to ΣPower, the optical signal level is
calculated by the following formula:

α: Equipment dependent power correction coefficient
Note:
When the wavelength range set at Signal Span cannot be
accommodated within the screen, only the data for the on-screen
wavelength range is totaled.
