AutoExposure  

 

The  Acquisition  time  corresponds  to  the  recording  time  of  a 
spectrum. 

It can be managed automatically by the app or imposed by the user.  

When the switch is on Auto, the exposure time is managed automatically by the app. When the switch 
is on Manual, the exposure time will be the one indicated in the text box.  

The acquisition time must be given in ms and can go from 1ms up to 2000ms. The user has to click on 
the  following  symbol  to 

save the acquisition time.
