ENABLING SIGNAL MODULATION
4 OPERATION
Enabling signal modulation
Modulation frequencies provided by the OLS-3xV2:
CW (continuous wave), 270 Hz, 330 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz
NOTE: Signal modulation is available in Single- (all models) and
Singlemode (OLS-36V2) only.
To select a modulation frequency:
I Single- is selected.

Selecting Auto-Lambda mode
Auto- is a special feature developed by Viavi that allows you to
identify wavelengths automatically. To do this, the signal is
modulated at a certain frequency, which can be detected by an
Auto- equipped power meter (such as the Viavi OLP-3xV2
series).
To activate Auto-:
J Press
[MODE] to skip through the modes and select Auto-.
The status bar shows Auto-.
NOTE: Signal modulation cannot be selected when Auto- is enabled.
Selecting Multi-Lambda mode
When Multi- mode is activated, the signal of the available
wavelengths are sent in parallel.

To activate Multi-:
J Press
[MODE] to skip through the modes and select Multi-.
The display shows Multi-
