HP 8163A Lightwave Multimeter, HP 8164A Lightwave Measurement System,
& HP 8166A Lightwave Multichannel System User's Guide, E1299
Description
Returns the mode of the modulation output.
Sets or returns the frequency of an internal signal
source.
Sets or returns a source for the modulating system. 89
Turns Amplitude Modulation of a source on or off or
returns whether Amplitude Modulation is on or off.
Sets the laser output power of a source.
Returns the laser output power of a source.
?
Sets or returns the laser rise time of a source.
Sets or returns the attenuation level for a source.
Sets or returns the state of the source output signal. 96
Sets or returns the power units.
Sets or returns the wavelength source of a dual-
wavelength source.
Selects Automatic or Manual Attenuation Mode for
a source or returns the selected mode.
Enables/disables 'dark' position on a source or re-
turns whether 'dark' position is active for a source.
Returns number of datapoints returned by the
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:READout:POINts?
command.
Returns the data as a binary stream from either a
lambda logging operation or the maximum power
the laser can produce at each wavelength.
Sets the absolute wavelength of a source.
Returns the absolute wavelength of a source.
Sets the frequency difference used to calculate a rel-
ative wavelength for a source.
Returns the reference wavelength of a source.
