Note

Different types of acquisitions are available for different devices including
Spectrometer, I²C, SPI, Board Temperature, Thermo-Electric Cooling and Analog In.
The controls available in the Acquisition Parameters Controls vary based on the
type of acquisition is selected.

Add additional acquisition controls to the Main Controls tab by clicking the Add/Remove Controls
tab and checking the boxes next to the desired feature. When checked, the controls for these features
will show up on the Main Controls tab. Unchecking a feature does not disable the feature. It only
hides the controls on the Main Controls tab. The spectrometer type will determine which controls are
available in the Add/Remove Controls tab. The Spectrometer feature is already checked and grayed
out. This feature places certain necessary spectrometer controls on the Main Controls tab and cannot
be removed.

Note

If a control is shown in the Main Controls tab, by selecting it in the Add/Remove
Controls
tab, that setting will be pushed to the device before every update. If multiple
acquisitions have visible controls for the same feature on the same device, the device
will alternate between them, possibly resulting in rapid changes of state (e.g., lamp
control).
