Uncertainty At Reference Conditions; Wavelength Range - Agilent Technologies 81630B User Manual

Definition of Terms Specifications
Conditions: the return loss excludes any reflections from the fiber
end used as radiation source.
Spectral width of optical source
Full width at half maximum. The 3 dB width of the optical spectrum,
expressed in nm.
Symbol: FWHM.
Total uncertainty
The uncertainty for a specified set of operating conditions, including
noise and drift.
Conditions: power level, beam diameter or fiber type, numerical
aperture, wavelength, spectral width, ambient temperature, re-
calibration period as specified. →Noise and drift observed over a
specified observation time, with a temperature change of not more
than ±∆T.

Uncertainty at reference conditions

The uncertainty for the specified set of reference conditions, including
all uncertainties in the calibration chain from the national laboratory
to the test meter.

Wavelength Range

The range of wavelengths for which the power meter is calibrated.
Note: Selectable wavelength setting of the power meter for useful
power measurements (operating wavelength range).
