You have now selected Code modulation. You can use 
Code modulation when you have connected the power 
meter submodule to another source (such as a second 
Mini-OTDR), and you want to use the wavelength of this 
source.
NOTE Code is equivalent to selecting the Dual 
λ or Single λ 
mode from the Agilent N3974 handheld Dual Laser 
Source.
