custom filter.

Custom filters
If a wavelength not covered by available filter units is needed, the empty filter holder
together with a custom filter can be used. The filter should have a diameter of 12.5 mm
and a maximum thickness of 6.5 mm to fit in the holder. The transmission of the filter
must correspond with the working range of the monitor. This can be checked from the
light intensity menu where the R-value must be between 2000 and 4500 mV when using
the filter. If the value is too high, an aperture can be used. Custom filters are not provided
by GE.
Setting wavelength for custom
filter
If a custom filter is inserted, the wavelength can be set.
