Parameter groups table gives you access to relevant parameters for the WDM simulation such as
Frequency and Power in only one place. This means you don’t need to change the parameter by
going to each component and entering the values for these parameters.
• From the main menu, select View/Parameter groups, or press Ctrl+5,
Figure 47 -Parameter groups
In the Parameter group table, you can access the following parameters: Bit rate, Frequency,
Iterations, Output signal type, Power and Sample rate. You can also enter the units of the group
and edit the parameter values by entering new values or using the tools from the context menu.
• In the parameter group table, select the column ‘Value’,
• Right-click over the selection,
• From the popup menu, select ‘Spread…’
• From the Parameter Group Spread dialog box, enter the first frequency channel
frequency and the spacing: 193.1 and 0.1.
• Press OK.
The values of the frequencies will be updated showing 8 frequency values:, from 193.1 THz to
193.8 THz.
