Application Tips

If the signal you collect is saturating the spectrometer (intensity greater than 4000 counts), you can decrease the
light level on scale in scope mode by:

• Decreasing the integration time
• Attenuating the light going into the spectrometer
• Using a smaller diameter fiber
• Using a neutral density filter with the correct optical density

If the signal you collect has too little light, you can increase the light level on scale in scope mode by:

• Increasing the integration time
• Using a larger diameter fiber
• Removing any optical filters
