Figure 8.1.1-2 - Optical Control and Status Page
The key AMP-1030P module status parameters of bias current, maximum bias current limit, input
power, output power, Loss of Signal (LOS), and temperature are obtained from the module and
displayed in prominently in the upper area of this window.
Both the optical input power and output power are monitored using 1% taps to minimize insertion
loss. Each calculated value is displayed in its designated location and can be shown in either dBm
or Watts based on the user’s selection of Units. Figure 8.1.1-3 shows Watts being selected by the
user and the appropriate input and output power levels being displayed.
