Command Syntax

:CALibrate:OPTical:USER:CHANnel{1:8}{A|B|C|D}:OPOWer <power>

<power> is a double.

Where the required specifier {1:8}{A|B|C|D} identifies a channel by its module slot number and channel letter. For example, channel 3C (CHANnel3C).

The channel specifier will fail if it does not include a slot number. If instead the suffix's channel letter is missing, the command defaults to letter A. As a result, the best practice is to always explicitly specify the channel by including both the module slot number and channel letter.

Description

On N1090A DCA-M extended hardware modules, specifies the optical input power used for a user optical calibration. The power output from the optical source must be within the allowable calibration requirements. Use the :CALibrate:OPTical:USER:CHANnel:WAVelength sibling command to specify the wavelength at which the calibration applies. Use the :CALibrate:OPTical:USER:CHANnel:STARt command to perform the calibration.

Requires FlexDCA revision A.05.00 and above.
