OLA Specific Commands
:SENSe:POWer:MEASuring:MODe?
:SENSe[1|2]:POWer:MEASuring:MODe?
This query returns the current measurement mode of the specified
channel. It is only applicable to the Powermeter application.
1|2
1
Reads the mode of head A
2
Reads the mode of head B
Default is 1.
An integer value:
0
Absolute power measurement
1
Relative measurement A/Ref or B/Ref respectively
2
Relative measurement A/B or B/A respectively
:SENSe:POWer:MEASuring:MODe
OUTPUT 724;":SENS2:POW:MEAS:MOD?"
ENTER 724;A$
:SENSe:POWer:OPTimize
:SENSe[1|2]:POWer:OPTimize<wsp><mode>
This command optimizes the optical heads attached to the OLA for
PDL measurement or for high sensitivity.
Note: This command affects only the temperature controlled heads
of type HP 81521B opt. 001.
1|2 The channel parameter 1 or 2 may be present, but is ignored.
Mode LPDL|HSENs|0|1. You can enter either the mnemonic or
the corresponding number:
LPDL
0 Low PDL for polarization dependent measurements
HSENs 1 High sensitivity for low power measurements
:SENSe:POWer:OPTimize?
The following examples yield the same instrument setting:
OUTPUT 724;":SENS1:POW:OPT HSEN"
OUTPUT 724;":SENS1:POW:OPT 1"
