Spectroscopic Functions OceanView allows you to perform the three basic spectroscopic experiments – absorbance, reflectance and emission, as well as absolute irradiance and Raman. Signal-processing functions such as electrical dark-signal correction, boxcar pixel smoothing and signal averaging are also included. Scope mode, the spectrometer operating mode in which raw data (signal) is acquired by the detector, allows you to establish these signal-conditioning parameters. The basic concept for the software is that real-time display of data allows users to evaluate the effectiveness of their experimental...

Installation Overview The following sections will guide you in installing OceanView on a Windows, Macintosh or Linux operating system. Caution Do NOT connect the spectrometer to the computer until you install the OceanView software. Follow the instructions below to properly connect and configure your system.
