  • Page 13: Chapter 2: Operation

    Chapter 2 Operation Overview The DH-mini Light Source includes both a deuterium and a halogen bulb for UV-VIS-NIR measurements. There are two ways to control the DH-mini: using the push buttons on the front panel or the TTL inputs on the rear panel. After power-on the Power LED will glow and the device will be in TTL control mode which is highlighted by the yellow TTL/ Manual LED.

    2: Operation Manual Mode In this mode you can switch the bulbs and the shutter via the corresponding push buttons. Control Action Deuterium Press button to turn Deuterium bulb on. The LED lights. Observe the warm-up time of 6 minutes to ensure that the light source has reached a stable operating state before taking measurements.
  • Page 15 2: Operation The pinout of the TTL connector is as follows: Pin # Function Deuterium control (5 V bulb on) Halogen control (5 V bulb on) Shutter control (5V shutter open) There is a TTL adapter cable available to directly attach the DH-mini on an Ocean Optics spectrometer using a HR4-CBL-DB15 cable.

    Appendix A Specifications This section provides information on the operating environment, physical controls, and dimensions of the DH-mini Light Source. It also provides a parts list. Specifications Specification Value 200 – 2500 nm Spectral range Light Output Stability <0.2% (standard deviation for k = 1) Drift <0.1% per hour (after 30 minutes stabilization) Warm-up time...
  • Page 18: Spectral Output

    A: DH-mini Specifications Spectral Output The following graph shows spectral outputs of a DH-mini recorded with three spectrometers. All spectrometers have measured irradiance spectra. The balance from the Deuterium spectrum (~200 – 400nm) to the Halogen spectrum (~400 – 1600 nm) can be changed by varying the intensity of the Halogen bulb (see Change Intensity of Halogen Bulb Parts List...
  • Page 19: Appendix B: Bulb Replacement

    Appendix B Bulb Replacement Overview If the lifetime of either the Deuterium bulb or the Halogen bulb is reached or if one bulb is broken you can replace the bulbs. Both bulbs are arranged in one housing so the bulbs cannot be changed separately. To order replacement bulbs for the DH-mini, see Spectral Output Replacing the Bulb...
