Laser Power Display Calibration
This parameter allows the laser power reading on the unit
to be calibrated to the display on the power meter.
Press the MODE button to edit this parameter, or press the
DISPLAY button to skip to the next parameter.
When the MODE button is pressed, the display shows an
uncalibrated power value. The power meter shows a value
which corresponds to the actual laser current.
Turn the OUTPUT pot to set the TLD001 display to read the
same numerical digits as the power meter (Ignore the
decimal point and the ‘u’ sign for now, this will be set in the
next step). The value displayed can be changed between
1.000 and 9.999. For example, if the power meter shows
5 mW, set the display to 5.000u.
Now press the MODE button to set the range.
The decimal point moves to the right with each press, and
the µ sign disappears when the mW range is selected.
After the highest range is reached, the process goes back
to the lowest range, so if a range is missed, it can still be
reached by further presses.
Following on from the same example as above, if the power
meter shows 5 mW , press the MOD E button until the
display shows 5.000 (no ‘u’ sign).
Press the DISPLAY button to access
the Display
Brightness parameter.
