Configuring the QE
Pro
The
QE Pro
can be used with OceanView software when connected to the USB port. If you have followed the previous steps and
started your spectroscopy application, the spectrometer is already acquiring data. Even with no light in the spectrometer, there
should be a dynamic trace displayed in the bottom of the graph. If you allow light into the spectrometer, the graph trace should rise
with increasing light intensity. This means the software and hardware are correctly installed.
