●
Maximum value set at factory 3amps. The maximum output power of the optical source is set
through a factory selected resistor which limits available current to the transmit source.
●
When using laser devices, which have a much higher operating current, do not increase the
reference control level beyond the factory settings.
●
Increasing the reference control level may cause premature failure of the internal reference diode.
