PROGRAMMING GUIDE
Setting up for RS-232, USB or GPIB communication
The TLS Tunable Laser Source may be remotely controlled via GPIB (IEEE-488)
and RS-232 interface. The GPIB interface of the meter conforms to the
ANSI/IEEE standards 488.1-1987 and 488.2-1987. The RS232C interface
conforms to ANSI/IEEE standard 488.2-1987 where applicable.
The common command set conforms to ANSI/IEEE 488.2 standard syntax. All
other commands conform to the Standard Commands for Programmable
Instruments (SCPI) command language, version 1999.0.
Accessing the “User Menu” mode
In order to establish communication between the computer and the meter, the
RS-232 bus or the GPIB bus must be configured properly. The different options
for the communication are contained in the User Menu. Refer to the
“USER
MENU OPERATION” section on page 13 for further details.
Programming over GPIB
The TLS supports the IEEE-488.1(1978) interface standard. It also supports the
mandated common commands of IEEE-488.2(1987) standard. Before
attempting to communicate with the TLS via the GPIB interface, the device
address must be set. The address is set by accessing the User Menu function
from the front panel. Use the Up and Down 0.1 arrow keys to set the address to
the required value.
Programming Over RS-232
In order to establish a serial communication between a computer and the TLS,
the computer’s COM port must be configured as described in Table 8.
To connect the TLS to the computer, a standard 9 pins straight RS-232 cable is
required. Only three pins, Txd, Rxd and GND are needed.
