Set Step Size
Syntax
[:SOURce]:WAVElength:STEP <value>
Description
Sets the change in wavelength for each step of a step scan.
Argument
x.xxx
Range: The value should be less than the difference
between the scan’s start and stop wavelengths. The maxi-
mum value is the difference between the laser’s minimum
and maximum wavelengths.
Units: nanometers (nm).
Example
Set the laser to tune in 25-nm steps (this only applies to
step-scan mode).
:WAVE:STEP 25
⇒
OK
Query Step Size
Syntax
[:SOURce]:WAVElength:STEP?
Description
Queries the step size.
Response
“x.xxxx”
Units: nanometers (nm).
Example
:WAVE:STEP?
⇒
25.0000
(In step-scan mode, the laser will tune in
25-nm increments.)
