Thermal3 Command
ldd current (dual|a|b) <setpoint>

Variables setpoint The setpoint current from 0.0 to 83.0 amps.

Description The "Current" laser diode control mode will enable the laser power supplies, enable the beam-pointing, set the laser current(s) to 120% of the threshold current(s), detect the write laser using the beam-pointing and ramp the laser current to the setpoint current. When the laser current has reached the setpoint current, the write laser has settled.

Notes Thermal 1.0 / 1.7x equivalents:
  • The monitor command ldd current (dual|a|b) <setpoint> is comparable to laser current <current>.

Thermal 2 equivalents:
  • The monitor command ldd current (dual|a|b) <setpoint> is comparable to ldd mode current <setpoint>.
