The following files are required, and are provided on an instrument specific configuration basis with
your Cobra spectrometer.

Look for the calibration information and configuration files for your particular instrument on the USB
storage drive provided, or contact us for product support with your device serial number if these files are
needed.
Sapera Configuration
Start the Sapera Configuration program and assign the COM
port for the camera link serial connection as shown. Reboot the
computer for the serial port changes to take effect.

as SUI cameras come from the factory pre-configured. They will
automatically read from the sensor and put data on the camera
link cable on power up.
