temperature of sensitive components. If these components are outside their
specified temperature range, the laser source will halt emissions.
5 Observe that the status panel is shown with
indicators in the emission enabled state.
6 a. Set the reference wavelength offset for the
module using the slider in the Wavelength
offset control. To adjust the wavelength,
click-hold the slider to change its position.
b. Alternatively, enter the wavelength in
nanometer units by typing the value into
the offset input box at the upper right
corner.
c. For a laser with power control, set the
emitted power level using the slider in the
Power control . To change the power, click-
hold the red slider to change its position.
