]]:PATH?
description:
Returns the regulated path.
parameters:
none
response:
HIGH:
LOWS:
BHR:
BLR:
The High Power output is regulated.
The Low SSE output is regulated.
Both outputs are active but only the High Power output is Regulated.
Both outputs are active but only the Low SSE output is Regulated.
example:
output0:path?
->
HIGH<END>
affects:
Tunable laser modules with two outputs.
command:
:OUTPut[
n
][:CHANnel[
m
]][:STATe]
syntax:
:OUTPut[
n
][:CHANnel[
m
]][:STATe]<wsp>OFF|ON|0|1
description:
Switches the laser current off and on.
The laser emits light only when the current is on. Set the state to OFF or 0 to switch the laser current off. Set the state to ON
or 1 to switch the laser current on. The default is for the laser current to be off.
For attenuator output see
parameters:
0 or OFF:
1 or ON:
switch laser current off
switch laser current on
response:
none
example:
outp 1
affects:
All laser sources, DFB sources, tunable laser modules and return loss modules with an internal source
