The LASER:MODE? query returns the laser control mode.
None. The response is character data (which represents the operating mode).
IHBW mode is the same as ILBW mode (low bandwidth), except that the output low bandpass filter
is disabled in IHBW mode.
LASER:MODE?-response: ILBW, means that constant current, low bandwidth mode is in effect for
the laser output.
:Laser:Mode?-response: MDP, means that constant optical power mode is in effect for the laser
output.
Laser:Mode?-response: MDI, means that constant monitor current mode is in effect for the laser
output.
:Laser:MODE?-response: IHBW, means that constant current, high bandwidth mode is in effect for
the laser output.
The LASER:MODE: command path is used to access the laser mode selection commands.
The following commands may be reached directly from the LASER:MODE: command path.
LASER:MODE:IHBW
LASER:MODE:ILBW
LASER:MODE:MDI
LASER:MODE:MDP
:
IHBW
The LASER:MODE:IHBW command selects high-bandwidth constant current mode for the laser
current source.
None.
In high bandwidth mode the modulation bandwidth is increased.
Laser:mode:ihbw-action: enables the high bandwidth constant current mode for the laser current
source.
