Tunable Laser Source 71
C Remote Control
Your Tunable Laser Source can be remotely controlled by either the
 GPIB interface (through a GPIB cable connected to the GPIB port), or
 RS-232 interface (through a serial cable connected to the serial port).
The commands used in both protocols are the same and described in the
following pages. When the FLS-2600B is being remotely controlled by
GPIB, Remote appears in the upper right-hand corner of the display.
Note: If you have already designed a GPIB program to control a Tunable Laser
Source from EXFO’s IQS Series (IQS-2600B), you can reuse sections for the
FLS-2600B.
Setting the FLS-2600B for Remote Control
To remotely control the FLS-2600B, you need to set a GPIB address or
activate the RS-232 port.
To set the remote control mode:
1. Press Setup.
2. Turn the selection dial clockwise until REMOTE is displayed.
The current setting appears.
