Installation and Operation Instructions
Description
The NE-1 Neon Calibration Source is a wavelength calibration source for UV-VIS-Shortwave NIR
spectrophotometric systems. The NE-1 produces Neon lines from 540-754 nm, and is an ideal lamp to
use when performing fast, accurate spectrometer wavelength calibrations.
The NE-1 features an SMA 905 Connector for interfacing with our optical fibers. It operates with a 12
VDC power supply (included with the unit) or 9V battery (not included).
The following sections detail the features of the NE-1 Neon Calibration Light Sources.
The NE-1 is NOT designed to operate as an excitation source in your experiments.
Spectral lines above 922 nm are not easily detectable by Ocean Optics spectrometers.

NE-1 and install the 9-volt battery, and then proceed to Step 2. an entrance slit, use a 50 m diameter (or smaller) fiber. Larger fibers and slits result in 2. Connect a fiber to the SMA 905 Connector on the NE-1. If your spectrometer does not have reduced optical resolution. - Page 3 3. Move the On/Off switch on the NE-1 (next to the SMA 905 Connector) to the On position. The red LED will illuminate to indicate that the NE-1 is powered on.

If you are using Microsoft Excel, choose Tools | Add-Ins and check AnalysisToolPak and AnalysisTookPak-VBA. Calibration Procedure Please see the appropriate manual for your model Ocean Optics spectrometer for instructions on how to calibrate it. Ocean Optics manuals are located at http://www.oceanoptics.com/technical/operatinginstructions.asp. - Page 5 Strong NE Emission Lines by Wavelength (nm) There are more emission lines shown below than printed on the label on the NE-1 housing. The label is intended as a quick, convenient reference and does not list every NE emission line that exists.
