Connect the SMA connector of the fiber to the SMA plug of the light source.
I/O connector
For pulse mode to be controlled by software it is needed to connect an AvaSpec spectrometer to the
AvaLight-XE-HP with the Y interface cable. The other end of the Y cable goes to the power supply.
Now it is possible to control the output operation mode by software (AvaSoft).
The signals on the I/O connector are described below.
