    The values which can be entered in these numerical boxes are limited. The limits mainly depend on various parameters such as the wavelength and the maximum allowed optical power. 7.5 Offset/DC current This item is settable in pulsed and CW operation. It rules the continuous current flowing through the laser diode.
