Preparing the Calibration

Preparing the Calibration

The second step, Preparing Calibration, is divided into three sub-steps:

³

Detector Null

³

Wavelength Response

³

Reference

These three steps must be successfully completed before gaining access to
the next step. A description of each of these sub-steps is provided in the
following window.

The Show Monitor button is used to show the power readings of each
IQS-1600 Power Meter and IQS-9401 WRM, in real time. The window can
be left open during the entire procedure, as it is not accessible during
Acquisition. Also, the Stop button is accessible only while Wavelength
Response
and Reference testing are being performed.
