Settings Menu
The Settings Menu allows the user to set the Display Units, Notifications, Global Parameters, Laser
Parameters, Process Trigger Modes, and Pulse Modes. The parameters are entered using pull down menus
or entering data and the user can use the Tab key to move between fields.
NOTE: Users must click the Save Settings button to save the changes before leaving the screen.
Display Units- The user can set the desired units in either wavelength or wavenumber. When done, click
the Save button at the bottom of the menu to store the parameters.
Notifications- The user can set the desired state of audio or visual external notifications. When done, click
the Save button at the bottom of the menu to store the parameters.
Global Options- The user can set options that will work across Internal or External modes:
If “Always use crossover in single tune” is checked then the laser will use the crossover points for ‘Tune’
mode. If this is unchecked, the laser will tune across the full tuning range of the QCL, ignoring the
programmed cross-over point.
If the “Enable Parameter Logging” is checked, the laser will save a *.txt file in the Home directory of the GUI
with critical parameters for the QCLs. This can help troubleshoot problems with the lasers in the field.
When done, click the Save button at the bottom of the menu to store the parameters.
Laser Parameters- The user can set the laser parameters for each of up to 4 modules. Select the QCL # in
the pulldown menu and make any changes to the parameters. The user can change parameters on all QCLs,
