Signal Generation – The SOURce Subsystem
The SOURce subsystem allows you to control a laser source module, DFB
source module, tunable laser module, or a return loss module that has an
internal source.
command: :OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:CONNection
syntax: OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:CONNection<wsp>MOD|VPP
description: Sets the analog output parameter.
parameters: MOD:
VPP:
The modulation frequency modulates the analog output.
Output Voltage is proportional to optical power.
response: none
example: outp0:conn mod
affects: Tunable laser modules with BNC ouput connector, except 81602A, 81606A, 81607A, 81608A, 81609A.
command: :OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:CONNection?
syntax: OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:CONNection?
description: Returns the analog output parameter.
parameters: none
response: MOD:
VPP:
The modulation frequency modulates the analog output.
Output Voltage is proportional to optical power.
example: outp0:conn? -> MOD<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules with BNC ouput connector
command: :OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:PATH
syntax: :OUTPut[n][:CHANnel[m]]:PATH<wsp><path>
description: Sets the regulated path.
parameters: HIGHpower:
LOWSse:
BHRegulated:
BLRegulated:
The High Power output is regulated.
The Low SSE output is regulated.
Both outputs are active but only the High Power output is Regulated.
Both outputs are active but only the Low SSE output is Regulated.
