To assure accuracy in the collection and processing of data, the ASD
application software is designed to finish its current operation before moving
on. The FieldSpec spectroradiometer spews out a lot of data at a high rate of
speed for the ASD application software to collect.
In addition, the ASD application software will stack up your keystroke entries
and execute them later in the order they were received.
It is important that you wait for the collection to finish before entering the
commands to launch another operation. Don't rush into new operations or into
issuing new commands until you see the results of the current command.
The warm-up time of the instrument depends on the environment in which it
is used.
One hour is recommended for radiometric work. Only ten minutes is needed
for reflectance measurements, particularly if conserving battery life is
desirable.
The serial number is a five (5) digit number [16xxx] located on a label on the
rear of the FieldSpec spectroradiometer where the power switch is. The label
also contains the model number and MAC address for the spectroradiometer.
The serial number is also accessible in the RS
screen or the Help->About menu item.
Use ViewSpec™ to convert spectral data to ASCII text files. This can be done
one file at a time or several files can be merged into a single text file, which is
a useful feature when inputting data into other analysis grams.
