Applicable Systems
YLS-2000
Symptoms
The fiber laser reports a laser power anomaly. The output power deviates from the setpoint beyond tolerance.
Possible Causes
- Pump diode degradation reducing output
- Power calibration drift
- Optical component contamination reducing efficiency
Troubleshooting Steps
- Step 1: Check the laser output power against the setpoint
Power is within tolerance of the setpoint - Step 2: Verify the power calibration
Calibration is current and accurate - Step 3: Inspect optical components for contamination
Components are clean and efficient
How to Reset
To reset: Restore correct laser power, then clear the alarm.
