Tunable Semiconductor Laser TSL- 710
5-9
4.
The setting items are as follows:
Sweep Setting (1/2)
λ
start
Sets the sweep start wavelength
Range:
Wavelength ranges specied in the specications
(Example: C+L Band = 1480 to 1640 nm)
Unit: 0.0001 nm
λ
stop
Sets the sweep end wavelength
Range:
Wavelength ranges specied in the specications
(Example: C+L Band = 1480 to 1640 nm)
Unit: 0.0001 nm
Pwr
Sets the optical power during sweep
Range: 30dB up to peak power
Typical value
-20 ~ +10dBm (0.01 ~ 10mW)
The available range of output power depends on
the product characteristics.
Unit : 0.01dB (0.01mW)
The value can be set to a value more than the maximum power determined by the
light source characteristics. However, a power level higher than the maximum is not
output. If the setting value is more than the maximum power, ”OverLD” is displayed to
issue an alarm that the setting power is not the same as the output power.
*
The optical power cannot be changed, if power control mode is manual.
(Refer to 6-3. Switching the optical power control mode)
