requested. Similarly, following driver software Installation, upon connecting the LC1-

USB to a USB port, the Found New Hardware wizard may launch. In this case, follow

the Instructions and when prompted, allow the wizard to find the best driver for the

device. If the wizard is unable to find the driver files, browse to the CDROM directory

"\USB\driver" and select the driver file the wizard is requesting.

Once the software and drivers are properly Installed, upon launching the LC1-USB

application program "spectra.exe" with the LC1-USB connected to a USB port, you

should see "Active Device" appear in the status bar at the top of the spectra display

window. If you see "No Device" instead. Make sure the LC1-USB is connected to a

USB port.

4.2.

In the Win98 and ME Operating System

The USB device driver file WINDRVR6.SYS must be located in

C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers. The driver files WINDRVR6.INF and

THORLABS.INF must be located in C:\WINDOWS\INF.

When the driver software is installed by running the man_install_9x.bat program, the

driver files are copied to the appropriate system directories and registered. Following

installation, and connecting the LC1-USB, the Found New Hardware wizard may

launch. The wizard should automatically find the driver and install it. If the wizard is

unable to find the driver files, browse to the CDROM directory "\USB\driver" and

select the driver file the wizard is requesting.

When the Spectra program is initially executed and the LC1-USB is connected to a

USB port, you should see "Active Device" appear in the status bar at the top of the

spectra display window. If you see "No Device" instead. Make sure the LC1-USB is

connected to a USB port.

4.3.

Run the LC1-USB Program

When running the LC1-USB, ambient light will saturate the CCD. Set the integration

time to 0.001. Set the Samples Per Average SPA to 1. You should observe a

deflection in intensity if you block light from the CCD. If the LC1-USB camera is to be

used with ambient light variation then ND filters must be used to limit the brightest

values.
