Resolution - Stepped Commands

The Stepped property of the Resolution object returns an object, which
handles resolution settings unique to stepped mode.
Automatically selects the modulation frequency to avoid RF phase
wrapping. The amount of RF phase change that is generated in response to
a wavelength increment is determined by the product of the wavelength
increment, the modulation frequency, and the dispersion of the test device.
Automatic adjustment of the modulation frequency insures that the per-
wavelength-step phase change is always less than ±180 degrees.
Property Value
Boolean - If True, the RF modulation frequency will be set automatically by
the ODA.
VB.NET Syntax
odaClient.Resolution.Stepped.AutoModulationFrequency = True
VB 6.0 Syntax
odaClient.Resolution.Stepped.AutoModulationFrequency = True
Specifies the separation between adjacent measurement wavelengths.
Property Value
Double - The wavelength spacing between points, in nanometers.
