Setting Up Your Multi-Wavelength Meter

Multi-Wavelength Meter

Setting Wavelength Units

Setting Wavelength Units

You can display wavelengths in nanometers (nm) or its equivalent
frequency in terahertz (THz).

To set a wavelength unit:
1.

Press

Setup

in the toolbar.

Select the

General

tab.

Under

Wavelength Units

, select the appropriate radio button to define

the unit. By default the wavelength unit is in nm.

Press

Exit Setup

to return to the main window.

Note:

If you select

THz

, the word “Frequency” will be displayed in the interface.

If you select

, the word “Wavelength” will be displayed.
