This chapter gives descriptions of commands that you can use when you
are setting up or performing measurements. The commands are split up
into the following subsystems:
• Root layer commands that take power measurements, configures
triggering, and return information about the mainframe and it’s slots
•SENSe subsystem commands that control Power Sensors, Optical
Head Interface Modules, and Return Loss Modules.
•SOURce subsystem commands that control Laser Source modules,
DFB source modules, Tunable Laser modules, and Return Loss Modules
with internal laser sources.
• Signal Conditioning commands that control Attenuator modules.
•TRIGger subsystem commands that control triggering.
