How to get a computerized program-controlled quasi-laser light source of 1.06 micrometers wavelength, with high speed response, stable and adjustable source power and high fidelity spectrum, has been studied in this paper. By using computer technology and time-delay method to simulate space distance, a series of problems about non-contact and undisintegration test of the while equipment, such as receiving sensitivity, range of blind area, accuracy of range finding, multi-target resolution, accuracy of selection and setting of laser range finder with 1.06 micrometers wavelength etc., has been solved. The characteristics of this light source is low cost, convenient to operate, and it has wide application prospect in manufacturing, debugging and fault repairing of laser range finder.
