The TEC:CAL:ITE? query is used to determine that the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is
ready for a value to be entered during the calibration cycle of the TEC:CAL:ITE mode.
Notes
This query can be used to poll the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller after the TEC:CAL:ITE
command to determine if its waiting for a value. If the response is 1, the LDC−3700B Series Laser
Diode Controller is ready to receive a calibration value via the TEC:ITE command (see
Section 6.3.8). This query may then be repeated for the second half of the calibration cycle. (A
query of the TEC condition status register, bit 11, has the same results.)
Examples
"Tec:CAL:ITE?" −response: 1, means the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is ready for the
user to enter a current value via the TEC:ITE command.
"Tec:Cal:Ite?" −response: 0, means the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is not yet ready
for the user to enter a current value, or it is not in the TEC current calibration cycle.
The TEC:CAL:SENsor command sets the TEC’s sensor calibration mode for the activated (via the
rear panel switch) sensor, and it enters that mode.
Parameters
None.
Notes
After this command is issued, the front panel is disabled, and the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode
Controller will automatically enter the sensor calibration mode. When the LDC−3700B Series Laser
Diode Controller is ready, the SET switch will become enabled, and the user should enter the true
measured value. This procedure is outlined in Chapter 6.
The TEC:CAL:SENsor? query may be used to determine if the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode
Controller is ready for the user to enter a value.
Examples
"Tec:CAL:Sen" −action: the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller enters calibration mode for
the sensor which is selected by the back panel switch.
"Tec:Cal:Sensor" −action: the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller enters calibration mode for
the sensor which is selected by the back panel switch.
The TEC:CAL:SENsor? query is used to determine that the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode
Controller is ready for a value to be entered during the calibration cycle of the TEC:CAL:SENsor
mode.
Notes
This query can be used to poll the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller after the
TEC:CAL:SEN command to determine if it is waiting for a value. If the response is 1, the LDC−
3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is ready to receive a calibration value via the TEC:R command
(Chapter 6). (A query of the TEC condition status register, bit 11, has the same results.)
Examples
"Tec:CAL:SEN?" −response: 1, means the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is ready for
the user to enter a resistance value via the TEC:R command.
"Tec:Cal:Sensor?" −response: 0, means the LDC−3700B Series Laser Diode Controller is not yet
ready for the user to enter a resistance value.
