command: [:SOURce[ n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt<wsp><startvalue>
[PM|NM|UM|MM|M]
description: Sets the starting point of the sweep.
NOTE Cannot be set while a sweep is running .
parameters: The wavelength at whi ch the sweep starts as a float value.
If you specify no units in your command, me ters are used as the default.
response: none
example: wav:swe:star 1500nm
affects: All tunable laser modules
command: [:SOURce[ n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt?
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STARt?[<wsp>MIN|MAX]
description: Retur ns the starting point of th e sweep.
parameters: optional MIN Returns the minimum st art wavelength available.
This value is wavelength dependen t.
MAX Returns the maximum star t wavelength available.
This value is wavelength dependen t.
response: The wavelength at which the sweep start s as a float value in meters.
example: wav:swe:star? → +1.50000000 E-006<END>
affects: All tunable laser modules
command: [:SOURce[ n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STOP
syntax: [:SOURce[n]][:CHANnel[m]]:WAVelength:SWEep:STOP<wsp><stopvalue>
[PM|NM|UM|MM|M]
description: Sets the end point of the sweep.
NOTE Cannot be set while a sweep is running .
parameters: The wavelength at which the sweep ends as a float value in meters.
If you specify no units in your command, me ters are used as the default.
response: none
example: wav:swe:stop 1550nm
affects: All tunable laser modules
