The LASer:MDLN command enables or disables (turns off) the front panel modulation
input (BNC).
Syntax Diagram
Parameters
An <nrf value> - where 1=on, 0=off.
Notes
After turning the modulation off, it will remain off until turned back on via this command or
by resetting the instrument.
Examples
“las:mdln 1” -action: turns the modulation input on and enables modulation via the front
panel BNC connector.
“Laser:mdln 0” -action: turns the modulation input off. Modulation signals at the front
panel BNC will not effect the LAS output.
The LASer:MDLN? query returns that status of the LAS modulation control. When
disabled, a modulation signal at the front panel BNC will not effect the LAS output.
Syntax Diagram
- where the response of 1=on, 0=off.
Notes
The LASER modulation control switches the front panel BNC in and out of the LAS
control circuit. At power up or after reset, modulation is enabled by default.
Examples
“LAS:MDLN?” -response: 1, means that the LAS modulation input is enabled.
“las:mdln?” -response: 0, means that the LAS modulation input is disabled.
