Parameters

None

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Notes

The LDV measurement mode is turned off automatically when another display selection

 

 

is enabled.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Examples

"LAS:DIS:LDV" -action: enables the display for LDV measurement mode.

Notes

In local operation, the status of the LDV measurement mode is indicated by the

 

 

enunciator next to the display (V will be illuminated when the display is in LDV

 

 

measurement mode).

 

 

 

 

 

 

Examples

"LAS:DIS:LDV?"

-response: 0, means that laser voltage measurement is not displayed.

"LAS: DIS:LDV?" -response: 1, means that the laser voltage measurement is displayed.
