POWF and POWP calculation,

It seems to me that when Zemax calculate POWF or POWP, it doesn’t take into account of wavelength. Is that the case? The POWF or POWP should be varied with the wavelength, I tried to see it in the merit function editor and using ZPL programming, both of them gives me the same results. IS this the bug with the software?

 

Thanks,

The wavelength is passed via the merit function editor here:

 

 

Thanks Mark, I think I made a mistake here as my system is all reflective, that is the reason why those two operands won’t be affected by wavelength at all.
