Optimizing the Optical Power Output

The HL-2000 is adjusted at the factory to provide maximum power into a 200µm fiber. If a lower optical

power is required or a different fiber (bundle) diameter is used, you can adjust the optical power of the

unit. Refer to HL-2000 Diagrams

while using the following procedure.

► Procedure

Follow the steps below to adjust the optical power of the HL-2000 Light Source:

1. Connect a fiber optic spectrometer or an optical power meter to a fiber, and then connect the other

end of the fiber to the HL-2000’s SMA plug.

2. Loosen the blocking screw with the provided 1.3mm Allen wrench.

3. Shift the SMA socket to optimize the optical power of the HL-2000.

4. Tighten the blocking screw to secure the SMA socket position.
