Legacy software or instruments may experience compatibility issues. Please receive support from customer service in such cases.
Please note:
Some optional features require separate hardware parts. Please make sure to assemble them before software installation!
go onThe installation software is deployed on a flash drive. It‘s stored in the envelope that contains the manual and certificate.
Express Setup
Automatic installation, simply follow the prompts.
Custom Setup
For advanced users desiring custom settings. Follow the prompts.
Some wavelength meters have an external power supply. Please connect the power supply before connecting the USB cable (included in shipment). Please avoid using USB cables longer than 3 meters – that might cause communication protocol difficulties with Windows.
Please note: Pay attention to the damage thresholds specified in the switch manual. A few µJ (µW @ 1 s exposure) or even less are usually enough to achieve a measurement. Take special care when working with pulsed lasers.
Suitable patchcords:
All wavelength meters feature FC/PC sockets.
The PCS input fibers with a core diameter of 9 µm can be used as an input for the photonic crystal fiber switch over the whole wavelength range of the wavelength meter.
Whereas these fibers are not endlessly singlemode themselves the optics in the photonic crystal switch will ensure that the output is singlemode over the whole wavelength range of the instrument.
Use the FC/APC:FC/APC patchcord
between switch and laser.
Your measurement results will be impaired when you apply
FC/APC connectors to a wavelength meter input.
Simply run the desktop shortcut.
Depending on your light source adjust the software settings in the graphical user interface.
A) Select preferred unit
B) Select pulsed or continuous
C) Select Adjust exposure manually or select “Automatic”
D) Start the measurement
The Long-Term program is set to automatically start with the measurement. After completion of your measurement save the long-term data on your computer. You can reload at any later time or use the data with any other statistical program.
