3.2.3 Setting the laser diode current (ILD)
NOTE
These commands affect the laser diode current of the laser of one specific
channel. Please select first this channel (port) with the command
"PORT <NR1>".
Programming:
":ILD:SET <NR3>"
Program the laser diode set current
":ILD:START <NR3>"
Program the laser diode start current for
“ELCH
1
”
":ILD:STOP <NR3>"
Program the laser diode stop current for
“ELCH”
":ILD:MEAS <NR1>"
Program the laser diode current as
measurement value on position <NR1> in the
output string for “ELCH”
(<NR1> = 1....8)
Reading:
":ILD:SET?"
Read the laser diode set current
[:ILD:SET
<NR3><LF>]
":ILD:ACT?"
Read the actual laser diode current
[:ILD:ACT
<NR3><LF>]
":ILD:MIN?"
Read the minimum laser diode current
allowed
[:ILD:MIN
<NR3><LF>]
":ILD:MAX?"
Read the maximum laser diode current
allowed
[:ILD:MAX
<NR3><LF>]
