The software compares the sample to the reference measurement and displays processed spectral
information.
Modular Sampling Accessories
Ocean Optics offers a complete line of spectroscopic accessories for use with the . Most of our
spectroscopic accessories have SMA connectors for application flexibility. Accordingly, changing the
sampling system components is as easy as unscrewing a connector and replacing an accessory.
Interface Options
The has both USB and serial port connectors (with the use of an adapter), enabling you to
connect the spectrometer to a desktop or notebook PC via a USB port. However, you must create custom
software if using the serial port. OceanView software is available if you are connecting via the USB port.
Breakout Box
Ocean Optics also offers the Breakout Box (HR4-BREAKOUT), a passive module that separates the
signals from their 30-pin port to an array of standard connectors and headers, enabling easy access to a
variety of features found in Ocean Optics’ Spectrometer. In addition to the accessory
connector, the breakout box features a circuit board based on a neutral breadboard pattern that allows
custom circuitry to be prototyped on the board itself.
Shipment Components
The following information and documentation ships with the Spectrometer:
Packing List
The packing list is inside a plastic bag attached to the outside of the shipment box (the invoice
arrives separately). It lists all items in the order, including customized components in the
spectrometer (such as the grating, detector collection lens, and slit). The packing list also includes
the shipping and billing addresses, as well as any items on back order.
USB Cable (USB-CBL-1)
Use this cable to connect your spectrometer to a computer running on a Windows, Mac or Linux
operating system.
Wavelength Calibration Data Sheet
Each spectrometer is shipped with a Wavelength Calibration Data Sheet that contains information
unique to your spectrometer. OceanView reads this calibration data from your spectrometer when
it interfaces to a computer via the USB port.
