Installing the USB2000
USB2000 Operating Instructions
13
Spectrometer Configuration Screen
The Spectrometer Configuration screen prompts you to configure specific channel-level spectrometer information,
if necessary.
Select
Spectrometer | Configure | Wavelength Calibration tab
from the menu and set system parameters. If
you have connected your spectrometer to the PC’s USB port, OOIBase32 pre-fills the coefficients for the
USB2000 from information on a memory chip in the spectrometer. Otherwise, you must manually type the
coefficients as they are printed on the Wavelength Calibration Data Sheet that accompanied your spectrometer.
Verify that the calibration coefficients match the coefficients from the Wavelength Calibration Data Sheet. If
necessary, modify these values using the USB Programmer utility. Additionally, ensure that you select both the
Master
and
Channel Enabled
boxes.
In the
A/D Interface
tab, enter the same values as in the Configure Hardware dialog box. OOIBase32 stores this
information for future use once you close the program.
