For WLIMitOFF, searching starts at 1650 nm and progresses towards 1270 nm. For WLIMitON, searching starts at WLIMitSTART and progresses toward WLIMitSTOP. These peak values are then placed into the corrected data buffer. Each peak value consists of an amplitude and wavelength measurement. Amplitude and wavelength correction factors are applied to this data Commands are grouped in subsystems Refer to “FPERotSTATE” on Table 2-4.
