HR2000+ Spectrometers. Product-Related Documentation You can access documentation for Ocean Optics products by visiting our website at http://www.oceanoptics.com. Select Technical → Operating Instructions, then choose the appropriate document from the available drop-down lists. Or, use the Search by Model Number field at the bottom of the web page.
Resources CD that ships with the product. Upgrades Occasionally, you may find that you need Ocean Optics to make a change or an upgrade to your system. To facilitate these changes, you must first contact Customer Support and obtain a Return Merchandise Authorization (RMA) number.
With its capability of transferring 1ms spectra continuously, the HR2000+ is the fastest spectrometer available from Ocean Optics. The HR2000+ is perfect for applications where fast reactions need to be monitored and high resolution is necessary, such as chemistry and biochemistry applications.
PC. About SpectraSuite SpectraSuite is the latest generation of operating software for all Ocean Optics spectrometers. It is a completely modular, Java-based spectroscopy software platform that operates on Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating systems. The software can control any Ocean Optics USB spectrometer and device, as well as any other manufacturer’s USB instrumentation using the appropriate drivers.
Modular Sampling Accessories Ocean Optics offers a complete line of spectroscopic accessories for use with the HR2000+. Most of our spectroscopic accessories have SMA connectors for application flexibility. Accordingly, changing the sampling system components is as easy as unscrewing a connector and replacing an accessory.
Ocean Optics software, spectrometers, and spectroscopic accessories. You must have Adobe Acrobat Reader version 6.0 or higher to view these files. Ocean Optics includes the Adobe Acrobat Reader on the Software and Technical Resources CD.
Chapter 2 Installing the HR2000+ Overview You must install the software application prior to connecting the HR2000+ Spectrometer to the PC. The software installation installs the drivers required for HR2000+ installation. If you do not install the software first, the system will not properly recognize the HR2000+. If you have already connected the HR2000+ to the PC prior to installing the software, consult Chapter 3: Troubleshooting for information on correcting a corrupt HR2000+ installation.
2: Installing the HR2000+ Once you install the SpectraSuite software and the hardware, and establish your sampling system, you are ready to take measurements. Configuring the HR2000+ with OOIBase32 Once you install the HR2000+ with OOIBase32 software, you must configure OOIBase32’s Configure Spectrometer options so that OOIBase32 recognizes the HR2000+ Spectrometer.
2: Installing the HR2000+ Procedure ► To configure hardware in USB Mode: 1. Specify S2000 in the Spectrometer Type drop-down menu. 2. Specify HR2000+ in the A/D Converter Type drop-down menu. 3. Specify the serial number of the HR2000+ under the USB Serial Number drop-down menu. Note The system pre-fills this drop-down menu with the serial numbers of all discovered HR2000+ Spectrometers.
OOIBase32 stores this information for future use once you close the program. Connect Spectroscopic Accessories To find operating instructions for HR2000+-compatible products (such as light sources, sampling chambers, and probes), consult the Software and Technical Resources CD or the Ocean Optics website at http://www.oceanoptics.com/technical/operatinginstructions.asp External Triggering Options You can trigger the HR2000+ using a variety of External Triggering options through the 30-pin Accessory Connector on the spectrometer.
Installation Windows Operating Systems If you connected your Ocean Optics USB device to the computer prior to installing your Ocean Optics software application, you may encounter installation issues that you must correct before your Ocean Optics device will operate properly.
2000 or XP operating system, you must also delete the OOI_USB.PNF file in the INF directory. 4. Navigate to the Windows | System32 | Drivers directory. 5. Delete the EZUSB.SYS file. 6. Reinstall your Ocean Optics application and reboot the system when prompted. 294-00000-000-02-201012...
If the PC to be used to interface to your HR2000+ already has an older version of OOIBase32 software installed, you must install the latest version of OOIBase32. You can download the latest version of OOIBase32 from the Ocean Optics website at http://www.oceanoptics.com/technical/softwaredownloads.asp.
This appendix describes how to calibrate the wavelength of your spectrometer. Though each spectrometer is calibrated before it leaves Ocean Optics, the wavelength for all spectrometers will drift slightly as a function of time and environmental conditions. Ocean Optics recommends periodically recalibrating the HR2000+.
A light source capable of producing spectral lines Note Ocean Optics’ HG-1 Mercury-Argon lamp is ideal for recalibration. If you do not have an HG-1, you need a light source that produces several (at least 4-6) spectral lines in the wavelength region of your spectrometer.

Saving the New Calibration Coefficients: USB Mode Ocean Optics programs wavelength calibration coefficients unique to each HR2000+ onto an EEPROM memory chip in the HR2000+. You can overwrite old calibration coefficients on the EEPROM if you are using the HR2000+ via the USB port.
A: Calibrating the Wavelength of the HR2000+ Saving the New Calibration Coefficients: Serial Mode If you are connecting the HR2000+ Spectrometer to the serial port of the PC, you need to save the new wavelength calibration coefficients to the .SPEC file that OOIBase32 accesses when opened. Note You cannot save the calibration coefficients to the EEPROM memory chip on the HR2000+ when using the serial mode.
