The DWDM Passive Component Test System allows you to locally monitor
the power meters and the Wavelength Reference Meter without exiting the
application. You can also set the source to a specific wavelength and
modify the polarization state of the IQS-5150 Polarization State Adjuster.
Note: This feature is only available after a power optimization is performed
(i.e., after a reference or calibration.)
Otherwise, the option will be grayed out.
To monitor the power meters and WRM:
1. From the main window menu, select Options >Local control.
2. If necessary, set a wavelength for the source. Click Apply to confirm
your changes.
3. If necessary, adjust the polarization state to your needs.
4. To display the monitoring zone, click Show monitors. You can hide the
zone by clicking Hide monitors.
5. If necessary, use the Power unit box to adjust the displayed unit.
6. When you want to come back to the DWDM Passive Component Test
System application, click Close. You can then proceed with the system
as you would normally.
