Figure5-10. Equipment setup for output wavelength
2Turn on the Agilent83430A and the optical spectrum analyzer, and allow them
to warm up for 30 minutes.
3Perform a user wavelength calibration of the optical spectrum analyzer as
described in the User’s Guide for the optical spectrum analyzer.
4Disconnect any cables connected to the Agilent 83430A’s ANALOG IN or DIGITAL
IN input connectors.
5On the optical spectrum analyzer, press the AUTO ALIGN key.
6When the automatic alignment has finished, press Wa veln, MORE 1 of 2, and then
cal menu.
7Press PWR CAL On Off so that On is underlined. Press WL CAL On Off so that On is
underlined.
The USERCAL annotation should be shown on the optical spectrum analyzer’s
screen.
8Center the waveform on the optical spectrum analyzer and set the wavelength
span to 2 nm.
