3.2 Docking Station
The docking station is used to store the instrument when it is not in use. It
charges the instrument and automatically performs auto diagnosis after po-
sitioning. This ensures that the instrument is always ready for operation.
Default interval for auto diagnosis is 7 days - this can be adapted via the
system settings, see Instrument Calibration [
To put the docking station into operation:
• Connect the docking station with the charger to the power supply grid.
• Connect the docking station via USB cable to the computer that is
meant to run the software “smart-chart”, see Software Installation
[
• The power LED lights up in green and the docking station is ready to
use.
NOTE:
If you buy a docking station as an accessory for the spectro2go, you can add
it via the configuration menu, see Instrument Calibration [
