Tfx Command
(requires ENG access)
ld base (<current>|auto)

Variables current Base current, in mA.

Description Set the base current, or specify "auto" mode to let the head choose the base current. Automatic mode is the default.

When on, two inputs contribute to a diode's current. The first input is the base current, which is shared by all diodes. The second input is the calibration current, which is unique for each diode. The two inputs are summed together for the total diode current.

Normally the base current is in automatic mode; when you set the current for a diode, the highest possible base current is chosen. This command lets you manually control the base current.
