Parameters

The device’s named configuration values. Each entry shows its type, default, unit, valid range or options, and access. See Usage for how to read and write them, locally or over a client.

default

wavelength: float = 632.8

Operating wavelength for sensor response correction in nm. The static range is the console-wide envelope; the limits of the attached sensor are pulled by synchronize_param_from_device(sync_constraints=True).

nm 185.0 – 25000.0 read/write field: 3.3 ms

averaging: int = 1

Number of samples to average per measurement. 1 sample takes approximately 0.34 ms.

1 – 3000 read/write field: 2.4 ms

power_range_auto: bool = True

Enable or disable the auto-ranging function for power measurements. When disabled, set the manual range via power_range.

read/write field: 3.0 ms

power_range: float = 0.01

Manual power measurement range (upper limit) in W; effective when power_range_auto is off. The static range is the console-wide envelope; the limits of the attached sensor are pulled by synchronize_param_from_device(sync_constraints=True).

W 1e-09 – 200.0 read/write

power_unit: str = 'W'

Unit for power readout: W (Watts) or DBM (dBm).

one of: W, DBM read/write field: 3.9 ms

attenuation: float = 0.0

User-defined attenuation/gain correction factor in dB applied to the measurement.

dB -60.0 – 60.0 read/write field: 2.6 ms

beam_diameter: float = 1.0

Beam diameter used for power density calculations in mm.

mm 0.001 – 25.0 read/write field: 2.7 ms
