2.0.3 BUTTONS
8.
CW / MOD button
- Pressing this button will toggle the
source between CW (continuous wave) and MOD (modulated)
mode.
9.
ON / OFF button
- Pressing this button while the source is
off will power it on. Holding this button while the source is on will

10.
8
/ AUTO
button - Pressing this button will toggle the unit between wavelengths in the selected port
when there are two wavelengths in the same port. Holding this button will place the source into AUTO mode,
where the source automatically switches wavelengths for automatic dual-wavelength testing.
11.
PORT button
- Pressing this button will toggle the source between ports A and B. See the table
below for a complete list of WaveSource configurations.
Allows for charging internal Lithium
Polymer battery.
Port B

wavelength source or 650nm VFL.
Port B Indicator LED
- This LED will either be
or
depending upon which wavelength is selected.
