RS-232 Connector Pinout
RS-232 Connector Pinout
The RS-232 connector (serial port) at the back of the FLS-2600B uses a DTE
pinout configuration.
The source has a medium coherence length that avoids problems such as
connector-induced interference and it is relatively immune to vibration. Its
linewidth is made up of several longitudinal modes that are present
simultaneously, resulting in no mode-hop-related measurement problems.
It also features a high-accuracy encoder for consistency in your results.
Your module may also feature the possibility to enable or disable the
automatic level control (ALC).
The FLS-2600B Tunable Laser Source supports local control (via its front
panel) and remote control (through GPIB or RS-232 using SCPI commands
or the provided LabVIEW drivers).
