<NFORce|FORCe>
Return Value
The state of the laser on the E/O converter.
Parameters
<NFORce|FORCe>
Defines how the query is executed:
• NFORce
Default value. Only the firmware is queried for the current state.
• FORCe
When FORCe is entered, the firmware checks the current condition
in the hardware. This is required to make sure that the output is
really switched on, or to check if the protection circuit within the
output has turned off the channel to protect it from damage.
N O T E
The
FORCe
query is slower than
NFORce
.
