[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer[:LEVel]:RISetime
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer[:LEVel]:RISetime<wsp><value>[NS|US|MS|S]
Sets the laser rise time of the chosen source.
Any value in the specified range (see the appropriate User's Guide).
Also allowed are:
none
sour2:pow:ris 10ns
All tunable laser and DFB source modules
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer[:LEVel]:RISetime?
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer[:LEVel]:RISetime?<wsp>[MIN|DEF|MAX]
Returns the laser rise time of the chosen source.
Also allowed are:
The rise time as a float value in seconds.
sour2:pow:ris? → +1.00000000E-009<END>
All tunable laser and DFB source modules
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer:STATe
[:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:POWer[1|2]:STATe<wsp><boolean>
Switches the laser of the chosen source on or off.
A boolean value:
none
sour2:pow:stat 1
All laser source, DFB source, and tunable laser modules and return loss modules with an
internal source
