	Parameters		None
	Notes		The MDI measurement display is turned off automatically when another display selection
			is enabled.
	Examples		"LAS:DIS:MDI" -action: enables the display for photodiode current measurement values.
			Laser:Disp:Mdi" -action: enables the LASER display for photodiode current
			measurement values.

	Notes		In local operation, the status of the MDI measurement mode is indicated by the
			enunciator next to the display (µA will be illuminated and not blinking when the display is
			in MDI measurement mode).
	Examples		"LAS:DIS:MDI?"		-response: 0, means that the laser photodiode monitor current

measurement is not displayed.

"Las:dis:MDI?" -response: 1, means that the monitor photodiode current measurement is displayed.
