The INTEGRA is a series of All-in-One detectors that combine a detector and a meter in one convenient product. The small but powerful meter of the INTEGRA Series presents a direct USB connection so you can plug it into your PC. Simply use the PC-Gentec-EO software supplied with your product and be ready to make power or energy measurements within seconds! Each detector of the INTEGRA Series offers the same incredible performance as the usual detector and meter combination, from pW to kW and from fJ to J.

INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 1.1. OUTLINE DRAWING...
Energy detectors can only be used with pulsed lasers. Adjust the Zero: The power read by PC-Gentec-EO when no laser beam is incident on the detector may not be exactly zero. For power measures, this is because the detector is not thermally stabilized OR there was a heat source in the field of view of the detector when you connected the PC-Gentec-EO.
Do not adjust the zero for energy detectors, such as the QE series. iv. Avoid forced airflow or drafts around the detector. USER INTERFACE Please refer to the PC-Gentec-EO manual for more information concerning the user interface.

INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 The Serial Commands Format is: All text commands must begin with a trig character (*) and DO NOT end with a line-feed or a carriage-return. All parameters must NOT have a space between the command and the list of parameters, nor between the parameters themselves.
INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 Example The following example sets the scale to 3 nanowatts or nanojoules: Command: *SCS08 Answer: 02 - Set Scale Up This command is used to force the display of the current data into a higher scale. Command Parameters Answer...
INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 06 - Get Autoscale This command returns whether or not the autoscale option is activated. Command Parameters Answer None 1: On 0: Off Example Command: *GAS Answer: Autoscale : 1 \r\n 07 - Display Valid Scale This command is used to display all of the valid scales the connected head supports.
INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 Example Command: *STL15.4 (15.4%) Answer: *STL0.20 (.2%) 09 - Get Trigger Level This command returns the trigger level in %. The value is between 0.1% and 99.9%. Command Parameters Answer None Returns the trigger level in %. Example Command: *GTL Answer:...
INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 Example For example, a 12 milliwatts reading would be displayed like this: Command: *CVU Answer: 0.012 <CR> <LF> 12 - Send Continuous Transmission of Data This command is used to send data to the serial port according to the data sampling setting. The maximum transfer speed is 200 Hz.
INTEGRA User Manual Revision 1.1 15 - Stop the CAU Command This command is used to stop the real time transfer enabled by the CAU Command. Command Parameters Answer None 16 - Query New Value Ready This command is used to check whether a new value is available from the device. Though optional, its use is recommended when doing single pulse operations.
