Connecting the Microscope to the Spectrometer
Module
The microscope is connected to the spectrometer module by two fiber optic cables. The
excitation fiber transmits the laser energy from the spectrometer to the microscope, and the
collection cable transmits the collected Raman data back to the detector.
1. Connect the excitation cable (L1323331) from the Raman module to the EXC coupler
under LED FIBER 1 on the rear panel of the spectrometer.
Ensure that the end of the fiber with the white cable marker is attached to the Raman
module.
CAUTION
Try to bend the fiber as little as possible. If you bend the fiber through a
tight angle it can be damaged.
