The LASER modulation control switches the front panel BNC in and out of the LAS control
circuit. At power-up or after reset, modulation is enabled by default.
EXAMPLES
"LAS:MDLN?" -response: 1, means that the LAS modulation input is enabled.
"las:mdln?" -response: 0, means that the LAS modulation input is disabled.

The LASer:MDP command sets the value of the optical power set point, in mW, if the CALMD (CAL PD)
responsivity is greater than 0.

PARAMETERS
An <nrf value> which represents the photodiode feedback power, in mW.
POINTS OF
INTEREST
If the CALMD (CAL PD) parameter is set to 0, the LAS:MDP value will not be used. In this
case, the measured MDP would be invalid, and the MDI (I
EXAMPLES
"Las:Mdp 40" -action: The LASER output is controlled so that the photodiode feedback
power remains constant at 40 mW.
"Laser:MDP 200" -action: The LASER output is controlled so that the photodiode feedback
power remains constant at 200 mW.
