Question
My QCL LAB isn’t working with the Quick Connect Application (QCA). Why?
Answer
If you are using the QCL LAB with firmware version 0.79 or earlier, it is remotely controlled using Wavelength’s QuickConnect Application (QCA).
If you are using the QCL LAB with firmware version 1.5 or later, it is remotely controlled using a Test and Measurement Class (TMC) compatible Command set.
To determine which firmware version is installed on your instrument, with the rear and front panel power switches on, swipe the touchscreen from left to right to show the System Information screen.
Complete installation and operation instructions can be found in the LAB Series Command Set document. A LabVIEW Virtual Instrument is also available. Complete installation and operation instructions can be found in the Virtual Instrument Operating Guide
NOTE: If you upgrade from version 0.79 to version 1.5+, all calibration and user data will be converted and saved. If you downgrade from version 1.5+ to version 0.79, all existing calibration data will be lost.
