In the next section we will use this laser specific information to set up Option-11A. Please note that the
values and settings here are just an example and your values might be different. Please refer to your laser
documentation or contact the manufacturer for detailed information about your specific laser.
Understanding Option-11A Capabilities
Option-11A has been programmed to include a few logical gates controlling the output signals. In general
there are a few signals available from the Clipper as inputs to the Lattice chip.
