| The Cairn monochromator system comprises of four main components; namely a light source, a power supply for the light source, the monochromator box itself, and a programmable system control box. If you have the rack-mounting version of the control system it will also contain support for our photometry modules. In addition, components for connecting the monochromator output to a fluorescence microscope via an epifluorescence port will usually be supplied. A key design requirement for our monochromator was to ensure compatibility with other Cairn products. It has been possible to achieve this without any performance compromises as the design of our other equipment - in particular our fluorescence photometry modules - anticipated the introduction of such an instrument. As with all our equipment there is considerable versatility in its configuration and mode of use, allowing it to be optimised for a specific application. We concentrate in this guide on getting started with the system. This includes initial set-up of the Optoscan, and basic operation and control of the monochromator using the terminal provided on the system control box. For information on advanced control options please refer to the Optoscan technical manual. If you are using third-party software to control the monochromator then please refer to their software manual for wavelength selection and control. Details on how to connect the Optoscan to your PC can be found in the installation guide (Sections 2 & 3). | ||||||||||
