ILX Lightwave LDC-3700 Series User Manual

POINTS OF
INTEREST
If the parameter is set to 0, the LDC-3700 Series Laser Diode Controller will operate in a
constant I,, mode, when Constant P mode is selected.
The parameter should
be set to 0- for I,, calibration modes. Otherwise, the value of this
parameter
is used to convert between I,, and P, values. The units of this parameter are
microampdmilliwatt.
In local operation, the LASERCALMD value is entered via the CAL PD parameter. When
the CAL PD parameter is selected (LED lit), pressing and holding in the
(PARAMETER)
SET switch will allow the user to enter the parameter value by adjusting the ADJUST knob.
EXAMPLES
"LAS:CALMD 0" -action:
sets the CAL PD parameter to 0. This enables the constant I,,
mode of operation.
"Laser:Calmd 1" -action:
sets the CAL PD parameter to 1.00 rnicraamp/milliwatt. Therefore,
a photodiode feedback current of
1 microamp will cause the P, display to read 1 milliwatt.

The LASer:CALMD? query returns the value of the laser's photodiode feedback
responsivity (CAL PD
parameter) setting.

is an <nrf value>.
POINTS OF
INTEREST
If this value is 0, the LDC-3700 Series Laser Diode Controller will be set to operate in
constant I,, mode, and the
I,, set point value will be in effect. If this value is non-zero, the
