4.4 Implementing Step-by-Step Wavelength Scanning
Subject Wavelength scanning enables the TUNICS T100S-HP tunable laser to broadcast on a
different wavelength at each time interval. It incrementally scans the entire wavelength
scanning range that you specified.
The following flowchart illustrates the wavelength scan process:
Figure 5: Wavelength scanning process
Starting from the first wavelength (i.e the lower wavelength limit that you set), the
emission wavelength increases incrementally (you set the wavelength increment stored in
the STEP parameter) up to the last wavelength value (upper wavelength limit that you
set).
During each scan interval, the TUNICS T100S-HP laser broadcast at a set wavelength for
the duration specified by the Pause Timer parameter that you set.
Before Starting Before activating the wavelength scanning, you must set the optical output power of the
TUNICS T100S-HP laser, as described in section Changing the Optical Output Power and
Diode Current, p. 33
.
Operating parameters cannot be changed while the wavelength scanning is in progress.
Make sure the power output level you set can be achieved within the maximum current
limits over the entire scanning range. If the desired power output cannot be reached due
to current limitations, the Lim message is displayed to indicate that the system no longer
operates at constant power.
