Saving the New Calibration Coefficients: USB Mode
Ocean Optics programs wavelength calibration coefficients unique to each USB2000 onto an EEPROM memory
chip in the USB2000.
You can overwrite old calibration coefficients on the EEPROM
if you are using the USB2000 via the USB port. If
you are using the USB2000 via the serial port, consult the
Saving the New Calibration Coefficients: Serial Mode
section later in this Appendix.
To Save Wavelength Calibration Coefficients Using the USB Mode
1. Ensure that the USB2000 is connected to the PC and that you have closed all other applications.
2. Point your browser to
http://www.oceanoptics.com/technical/softwaredownloads.asp and scroll down to
Microcode
. Click on the
USB EEPROM Programmer
selection.
3. Save the setup file to your computer.
4. Run
the
Setup.exe
file to install the software. The Welcome screen appears.
5. Click
the
Next
button. The Destination Location screen appears.
6. Accept the default installation location, or click the
Browse
button to specify a directory. Then, click the
Next
button. The Program Manager Group screen appears.
7. Click
the

button to begin the installation. Once the installation finishes, the Installation Complete
screen appears.
9. Click
the
Finish
button and reboot the computer when prompted.
10. Navigate to the
USB EEPROM Programmer
from the Start menu and run the software.
11. Click on the appropriate USB2000 device displayed in the left pane of the USB Programmer screen.
12. Double-click on each of the calibration coefficients displayed in the right pane of the USB Programmer
screen and enter the new values acquired in Steps 5 and 6 of the
Calibrating the Wavelength of the
Spectrometer
section in this Appendix.
13. Repeat Step 12 for all of the new values.
14. Click on the
Save All Values
button to save the information, and then
Exit
the USB Programmer
software.
The new wavelength calibration coefficients are now loaded onto the EEPROM memory chip on the USB2000.
