No, the optic cable must be handled with particular care during unpacking to avoid damage. Damaging the fiber optic cable due to mishandling may void the warranty, as the warranty excludes damage resulting from misuse or mishandling.

  • Page 91: Pulse Shaping

    Pulse Shaping Overview The Pulse Shaper program lets you sketch pulse points. It automatically fills in pulse (power level) lines, and computes all the emission pulse characteristics simultaneously. It also performs auto-correction in case constraints are violated. A laser emission pulse is a custom time-based emission power signal, constrained by an output sample time, maximum power, maximum energy and minimum current (power) threshold, all of which are pre-configured in the laser.
