PM103x Optical Power Meter Interfaces Chapter 5 Specifications
5.3 Pin Sensor Connector
The sensor connector allows the access of all Thorlabs “C-type" photodiode and pyroelectric sensors.
The power meter interface uses the sensor calibration data, stored in the sensor connector, to calculate
the corresponding actual power levels.
Additionally, the PM103x is capable to support custom made detectors. Please read the following
instruction prior to connecting a self made sensor.
Warning
Pin 2 is uniquely used for the EEPROM Digital I/O (memory in Thorlabs sensor heads) and MUST NOT be
