The Calibrate Wavelength procedure takes about 1-2 minutes to be completed.
During the calibration, the Spectro will display two numbers at the bottom of
the screen. The first number is fixed. The second number will change and can
have a range of values. The microprocessor will move the grating in search of
the position that gives a very specific maximum light intensity. The
microprocessor will then move the grating a precise predetermined amount from
this position. This precise movement will cause the grating to be positioned at
546 nm every time. Once calibrated the wavelength displayed during testing is
accurate to ±2 nm. When the wavelength calibration is complete the display
will go back to the Main Menu.
