Page 4: Overview
(A/D) converter designed for hassle-free instrument-to-PC interfacing. An A/D converter is necessary to interface all Ocean Optics spectrometers to PCs. Interface Options The ADC1000-USB can interface to external devices via the USB port or the Serial port. The following table details requirements for external devices: Device /... -
Page 5: Usb Port
The ADC1000-USB interfaces an S2000 Spectrometer to a notebook or desktop PC via a USB port. When interfaced to a PC via the USB port, the ADC1000-USB does not require an external power supply -- it draws its power from the PC to which it is connected. -
Page 6: Using The Adc1000-Usb
USB Port Overview Note: To use the USB port on the ADC1000-USB, the PC to which you are connecting must run either the Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000, or Windows XP operating systems. USB connectivity is not available on Windows 95 or Windows NT systems. -
Page 7: Install The Ooibase32 Software
Consult your OOIBase32 documentation for instructions on installing OOIBase32. Connect the ADC1000-USB to your USB Port The USB port on the PC will supply sufficient power to the ADC1000-USB only if the ADC1000- USB is connected to 5 or fewer spectrometer channels. If the ADC1000-USB is connected to... -

4. Click the OK button. The Default Spectrometer Configuration screen appears. 5. Go to the OOIBase32 installation directory and select the file named XXX.spec, where XXX represents the serial number of your ADC1000-USB. Then, click the OK button. Note: You will typically only set the parameters in this screen once -- when OOIBase32 is first installed and the software first opens. -

Using the ADC1000-USB: USB Mode Wavelength Calibration Tab If your spectrometer and ADC1000-USB were packaged together, the displayed coefficients are read from a memory chip on the ADC1000-USB. The numbers in the Wavelength Calibration tab must match the coefficients from the Wavelength Calibration Data Sheet that came with your spectrometer. -
Page 10: Configuring Data Acquisition
This feature is only available when using the ADC1000-USB via the USB port. Note: If you are using the ADC1000-USB via the serial port, proceed to the Saving Wavelength Calibration Coefficients: Serial Mode section. Perform the following steps to save wavelength calibration coefficients using the USB mode: 1. - Page 11 Using the ADC1000-USB: USB Mode 3. Select the Wavelength Calibration tab. 4. Enter in the values you acquired from Steps 5-6 in the Calibrating the Wavelength of the Spectrometer section. 5. Click on the Write to ADC1000USB button, then click the OK button.

Page 12: Serial Port Overview
(included with ADC-USB-SER kit) Connect the ADC1000-USB to your Serial Port To use the serial port on the ADC1000-USB, the PC to which it is interfacing must have a 32-bit Windows operating system. Follow the steps below to connect the ADC1000-USB to the computer via the serial port: 1. -
Page 13: Install The Ooibase32 Software
You will need to configure OOIBase32 before using the ADC1000-USB and your spectrometer. For details on using OOIBase32, consult the OOIBase32 Spectrometer Operating Software Manual, which can be found on the Software and Technical Resources CD and the Ocean Optics website. - Page 14 This value specifies that every n pixel of the spectrometer will transmit from the ADC1000-USB to the PC. Sacrificing resolution equates to an increase in speed. The transfer of one complete spectra requires approximately 0.3 seconds at 115,200 baud. If you need information more frequently than 0.3 seconds per spectra, increase the...

Page 17: Saving Wavelength Calibration Coefficients: Serial Mode
Note: You cannot save the calibration coefficients to the EEPROM memory chip on the ADC1000-USB when using the serial mode. To save wavelength calibration coefficients using the serial mode: 1. Open OOIBase32 and select Spectrometer > Configure from the menu bar. -
Page 18: Adc1000-Usb-S Notes
Power Input Specifications When using the ADC1000-USB-S in USB mode, you do not need to connect an external 5V power source as long as your spectrometer has 4 channels or less. However, if your spectrometer has 5 or more channels, you will need to use an external 5V power source, as the USB cable cannot deliver enough power to accommodate all channels. -
