[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:READout:POINts?
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]:READout:POINts?<wsp>LLOGging|PMAX
Returns the number of datapoints that the [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:READout:DATA? com-
mand will return.
LLOGging:
Returns the number of wavelength steps for a lambda logging operation, see
"[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:LLOGging" on page 140.
Returns the number of datapoints (each datapoint contains a value for wave-
PMAX:
length and power) the [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:READout:DATA? PMAX
command will return, number of datapoints depends on the calibration data
for your module.
The number of datapoints as an integer value.
sour2:read:poin? pmax → 120<END>

[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength[:CW[l]:FIXED[l]]
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength[:CW[l]:FIXED[l]]<wsp><value>
[PM|NM|UM|MM|M]
Sets the absolute wavelength of the output.
Any wavelength in the specified range (see the specifications in the appropriate User's
Guide).
The programmable range is larger than the range specified in the User's Guide. The program-
mable range is set individually for each instrument when it is calibrated during production.
Also allowed are:
Use [l] to set the upper or lower wavelength laser source of a dual-wavelength laser source.
The default value of [l] is 1, the lower wavelength source. The upper wavelength source is
denoted by 2.
none
sour2:wav 1550NM
All tunable laser and DFB source modules
Signal Generation – The SOURce Subsystem
MIN: minimum wavelength value
MAX: maximum wavelength value
DEF: This is not the preset (*RST) default value but is half the sum
of, the minimum wavelength value and the maximum wavelength
value
