  • Page 5 TECHNICIAN'S NOTES CONTENTS The Milton Roy 501/601 Spectrophotometer is a simple instrument designed for quick and easy absorbency or transmittance measurements at single wavelengths. The 501 has a range of 325 to 999nm, while the 601 includes the UV range, (195-999nm), with the addition of a Deuterium lamp.

  • Page 7 CONTENTS Test Parameter Storage: The SPECTRONIC 501/601 can store the existing set of test parameters as the "default" values in non- volatile memory. Once stored, these values will be present the next time you turn your spectrophotometer on. Any changes made to these parameters during subsequent use of the spectrophotometer will be temporary and replaced with the stored “default”...
