Wavelength Accuracy Performance Tests
Agilent 81600B Tunable Laser Source Family, Fourth Edition 79
Test Procedure
This test procedure is applicable to the:
It measures the absolute and relative wavelength accuracy of the module
at the outputs indicated.
1 Move to the TLS channel of the Agilent 8164A/B Lightwave
Measurement System and press [Menu].
2 Set the menu parameters to:
3 Connect the fiber to the optical output.
If you are using the Agilent 81600B #200, #160, #150, #140 or #130,
connect the fiber to Output 2, the High Power output.
That is, set <Optical Output> to <High Power (2)>.
4 Set the inital wavelength and power of the TLS to:
Agilent 81600B #200 (Output 2, High Power)
Agilent 81600B #160 (Output 2, High Power)
Agilent 81600B #150 (Output 2, High Power)
Agilent 81600B #140 (Output 2, High Power)
Agilent 81600B #142 #003
Agilent 81600B #142
Agilent 81600B #130 (Output 2, High Power)
Agilent 81600B #132
