Note
If you have previously installed the 64-bit Beta release, you must first uninstall
SpectraSuite, plug your spectrometer in and then uninstall the spectrometer driver from
the Windows Device Manager before proceeding.
When you plug your spectrometer in again, the Found New Hardware wizard will launch.
Tell the wizard to allow you to specify the location of the drives and browse to the
SystemFiles directory of the SpectraSuite installation (by default this will be C:\Program
Files\Ocean Optics\SpectraSuite\SystemFiles). Continue through the wizard normally. If
the wizard prompts for the location of a DLL, look in C:\Program Files\Ocean
Optics\SpectraSuite\SystemFiles\amd64.
