Configuring the Full-Band Mode
The OSICS SWT APC optical switch module enables you to drive from 1 to 2 or to 1 to 4
(depending on your SWT APC model) OSICS T100 and OSICS ECL modules plugged in
the same OSICS Mainframe: you select a wavelength and an output power in the
OSICS SWT APC setup menu, and the module automatically selects the channel and
drives the OSICS T100 or ECL to provide the wanted values.
To use the OSICS SWT APC in Full-Band mode, the module must know where OSICS T100
and OSICS ECL modules are located in the Mainframe. For this, you can use one of the
following methods:
•
Manual configuration
: use this method if an OSICS T100 or ECL is running with
another application, or if an ECL has a software version prior to v. 2.21 (in this case the
wavelength range cannot be automatically defined).
•
Automatic detection
: use this method if the OSICS T100 and ECL modules installed
in the Mainframe are not running for other applications.
12.4.1 Automatically Detecting the T100 and ECL Modules Connected
to the SWT APC
Subject
The OSICS T100 and ECL modules already installed in the Mainframe (not being used by
other applications) can be automatically detected by the OSICS SWT APC module.
The automatic detection does not work for ECL modules with a software version prior to
v. 2.21.
The auto configuration takes approximately 20 seconds. During this operation, the
optical outputs of the connected OSICS T100 or OSICS ECL are sequentially turned off
and on.
Before Starting
•
Connect the wanted OSICS T100 and ECL to the input ports of the OSICS SWT APC

Procedure
1.
Access the SWT APC
Unit Setup
menu (see section
Accessing an OSICS Module Setup
).
2.
Expand the
ECL vs Channel
menu enter the
Auto
menu.
The
ECL vs Channel
menu appears, prompting you to start the detection.
3.
Press the knob to start the detection.
The SWT APC sequentially disables and enables the optical output of the connected
OSICS T100 and ECL modules.
If two OSICS T100 or ECL modules have common wavelengths, the SWT APC selects
the first module in the mainframe to achieve the range.
Once the automatic detection is complete the automatically detected values are
displayed.
