10.3 TRACQ BASIC SOFTWARE
Oriel’s optional TracQ Basic Data Acquisition and Radiometery Software is an instrument control
package that includes data acquisition and processing. TracQ Basic allows users to acquire
spectroscopic measurement data quickly and easily, without requiring any programming knowledge.
TracQ Basic enables users to acquire basic voltage measurements or use the built-in algorithms for
spectroscopic measurements. Data acquisition and processing occurs in real time.
TracQ Basic is an application integrating Oriel spectrographs with various detection instruments,
such as the Newport Optical Power and Energy Meters, 1918-R, 1936-R and 2936-
R, plus Oriel’s
LIDA-SRS-KIT. Software prompts guide users through the measurement process. Instruments are
controlled and scan parameters are set up through simple, intuitive dialog boxes. The front panel of
the software allows one to see instrument status, present wavelength, signal reading and the
selected wavelength units.
Please note that the camera used with a spectrograph is an independent instrument that is not
controlled by TracQ Basic.
