The Omicron Laser Controller controls Omicron LuxX®, PhoxX® and BrixX® series lasers as well as lasers integrated in LightHUB® compact laser combiners and SOLE® laser light engines via their serial interfaces (USB Port - all models, RS232 Port - for LuxX® and BrixX® series lasers only available with an optional break out cable). In the hardware configuration wizard you will need to add one Omicron Laser Controller object for every “…xX”-laser device you would like to control.
The following laser features and operating modes can be controlled and/or monitored through µ-manager device/property browser:
Read only properties:
- Device type
- Serial number
- Specified power
- Wavelength
- Workinghours
- Temperature baseplate
- Temperature diode
- Error notification
Read/Write properties:
- Laser operation select (turns the laser emission ON or Off)
- Laser operatingmode select (CW, analogue and/or digital modulation, standby)
- Laser CW sub-operatingmode select (ACC-Auto Current Control or APC-Auto Power Control; only available with connected LuxX or BrixX laser module)
- Laser power set-point select (set the laser power level in [mW] or [ %])
- Reset
Below you can see a screenshot of an Omicron “…xX”-Laser Series module controlled via the device/property browser:
