The IQS-1500’s Windows-compatible, highly intuitive GUI allows easy control via mouse, touchscreen or keyboard. Also, it lets you save multiple
user configurations and access the instrument’s online user guide.
Calibration Mode
IQS-1500
AStart
Allows the user to select the calibration mode, start a new calibration
sequence with template file or view a report file.
BInformation
Allows the user to enter general and specific information about current
measurement conditions. This information will be included in the
calibration summary.
CGeneral
Contains user and module information currently used to perform
calibration.
DConditions
Contains all the information pertaining to the conditions at which the
calibration is performed: source wavelength, power and bandwidth,
temperature and humidity.
EDevice under Test (DUT)
Contains all the information pertaining to the DUT under calibration.
FUncertainties
Allows the user to enter specific information pertaining to the
calculation of the calibration uncertainty.
GNull
Allows the user to eliminate electronic offsets and dark currents to
ensure accuracy.
HCalibration
Allows the user to perform calibration measurements and calculation.
IRef. Meter Measurement
This auto-save function allows the user to select the number of
measurements and the intervals between readings for automated
measurements on the reference power meter (IQS-1500).
J DUT Measurements
Allows the user to enter DUT power measurements.
K Summary
Displays complete calibration results, including mean power, calibration
factor and total uncertainty.
L Detailed calibration reports
Generates detailed calibration reports that include instrumentation
identification, environmental information, reference conditions and
a calibration summary for each wavelength.
