description
Laser diode polarity, laser diode voltage protection, switch on
delay, and inhibit input mode can be set
Operating mode, laser current limit, photodiode current limit,
thermopile voltage limit, power feedback loop settings can be
set
changes of different set points like the laser current (in con-
stant current mode) or photodiode current, thermopile voltage,
and optical power (in constant power mode) can be made
the photodiode parameters like input route (13W3 DSUB jack
or BNC jack), current range, BIAS state, BIAS voltage and re-
sponse can be set
the voltage sensor parameters like input route (13W3 D-Sub
jack or BNC jack), voltage range or response can be set
the modulation source (internal or external) and the settings for
the internal modulation like shape, frequency and depth can be
changed
the trigger source and the QCW pulse parameters can be
changed
TEC current limit, Temperature set point limits, temperature set
point, and current set point can be changed
a temperature sensor can be selected and the sensor offset
can be adjusted
the parameters for the thermistor temperature calculation can
be entered
the PID control loop parameters can be shown and changed
manually
the PID auto-tune process can be started and the found para-
meters can be applied to the PID control loop settings
the TEC's temperature protection window can be defined and
the error behavior can be set
two, four or six value measurement screen can be picked and
the displayed set points or readings can be changed
8 different Laser setups can be saved or reloaded
the direction and the levels of the digital I/Os can be read or
written
the system settings like message handling, display brightness
and contrast, sound signal on/off, line frequency and update
capability can be changed.
