Enabling Wavelength Diagnostics on C-Band and L-Band SWS Systems

In systems used in applications where it is necessary to monitor wavelength accuracy, or where
wavelength instability is suspected, a wavelength diagnostic feature can be enabled. When the
feature is enabled, the wavelength accuracy is tested after every scan and errors are logged to a
file. The user is informed immediately of any wavelength instability.
To enable wavelength diagnostics on both C- and L-band systems:
1. Edit the SWS15100.INI file.
2. Reset the number of points on the SOM.
3. Perform wavelength calibration.
