4 Connecting Optical Input
I MPORTANT
To ensure maximum power and to avoid erroneous readings always inspect fiber end faces. Make sure they are cleaned as detailed below before inserting into any port. Coherent Solutions is not responsible for damage or errors caused by bad fiber cleaning or handling.
C AUTION
The type of optical connectors on the matrIQ Switch instrument can be found printed on the front plate of the module. Joining mismatched connectors will damage the ferrules and fibre faces.
Cleaning and Connecting Optical Fibers
To connect the fiber-optic cable to the port:
1.
Inspect the fiber using a fiber inspection microscope. If the fiber is clean, proceed to connect it to the desired port. If the fiber is dirty, clean it as detailed below.
2.
Clean fiber ends as follows: a Gently wipe the fiber end with a lint-free swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. b Use compressed air to dry completely. c Visually inspect the fiber end to ensure its cleanliness.
3.
Carefully align the connector and port to prevent the fiber end from touching the outside of the port or rubbing against other surfaces. If the connector features a key, ensure that it is correctly mated into the corresponding notch of the port bulkhead.
4.
Push the connector in so that the fiber-optic cable is firmly in place, thus ensuring adequate contact. If your connector features a screw sleeve, tighten the connector enough to firmly maintain the fiber in place. Do not over tighten, as this will damage the fiber and the port bulkhead.
Note: If your fiber-optic cable is not properly aligned and/or connected, you will notice large signal loss and reflection .
Coherent Solutions uses high quality connectors in compliance with EIA-455-21A standards.
To keep connectors clean and in good condition, Coherent Solutions strongly recommends inspecting them with a fiber inspection probe before connecting them. Failure to do so will result in permanent damage to the connectors and degradation of future measurements.

9 Programming Guide
Introduction
Remote communication with the CSLServer is achieved through the Standard Commands for
Programmable Instruments (SCPI). Support for VISA I/O API over TCP/IP is provided by the
VXI-11 compliant CSLServer. With VISA communication drivers installed on the client, the implementation of VISA programming within environments such as MATLAB becomes available. This guide provides general information on the commands available to communicate with the CSLServer remotely using the VISA I/O.
Programming Conventions
This section details the programming and measurement conventions to follow while executing the commands for the CSLServer.

[VALUE1|VALUE2] A parameter choice . The ‘ | ’ separates the unique parameters available, only one of the choices can be used. In the example, either the input parameter [VALUE1] or [VALUE2] can be used, but not both.
Some commands may have more than two choices available.
This parameter can be omitted where the command has a default defined in the command description.
Index Addressing of Modules (slot, source) and Units (channel)
When executing commands, it is almost always necessary to provide the index of a specific laser module.
For the commands that require index values:
• <n> : is the slot index of a matrIQ instrument, this is always <1>.
• <m>: is the channel index of a specific unit in the module, this is an integer, <1, 2, 3, 4 >.
Message Queues
Information is exchanged in the form of messages. These messages are held in input and output queues.
The output queue stores responses to query commands. The CSLServer transmits any data in the output queue when a read request is received. Unless explicitly specified otherwise in the command description, all output response data is transmitted in ASCII format.
