PARAMETERS An <nrf value> which represents the laser current output range.

POINTS OF
INTEREST This range setting effects the Laser Drive Current output current range only.
The Laser Drive Current output should be "off" when this command is issued. If the Laser
Diode Current output is "on" when this command is issued, the LDX-3200 Series Precision
Current Source will generate error E515, and the range will not be changed.
EXAMPLES "LAS:RAN 2" -action: sets the laser output drive current range to 200 mA (LDX-3220 only).
"Laser:range 1" -action: sets the laser output drive current range to 100 mA (LDX-3210 only).

The LASer:RANge? query returns the value of the Laser Drive Current range.
SYNTAX DIAGRAM
-where the response is an integer; 1 means 100 mA range (LDX-3210), 2 means 200 mA range
(LDX-3220), and 5 means 50 mA range (LDX-3210) or 500 mA range (LDX-3220).
POINTS OF
INTEREST The resolution and accuracy of the laser limit current are dependent on the Laser Drive Current
output range.
