SWL?
Query returns the current wavelength number in
“x.x” format, valid returns are 1.3 for 1310nm, 1.4 for
1480nm, 1.5 for 1550nm, 1.6 for 1625nm and 0.8 for
850nm.
Interface:
GPIB and RS-‐232/USB
Syntax:
“SWL?”<CR>
Returned Format:
<x.x><NL> where <x.x> = “0.8”, “1.3”, “1.4”, “1.5”, or
“1.6”
SSC
The SSC command switches the meter to the next
wavelength or to a specific wavelength using the
position number/sequence as reference. The
position of a laser in a particular meter will depend
on the number of lasers in the meter.
Interface:
GPIB and RS-‐232/USB
Syntax:
“SSC”<CR> (switches to next wavelength)
“SSC x”<CR> (where x = 1, 2, 3, or 4). Example, “SSC
2” switches to the second wavelength (ie on a 2-‐
wavelength MBR5 1310/1550, "SSC 2" would switch
to 1550nm, however on a 1310/1480/1550/1625
"SSC 2" would switch to 1480nm)
Returned Format:
None
SSC?
Query returns the current wavelength position
number in “x” format.
Interface:
GPIB and RS-‐232/USB
Syntax:
“SSC”<CR> (switches to next wavelength)
“SSC?”<CR>
Returned Format:
<x ><NL> where < x> = “1”, “2”, “3”, or “4”
