Warning

Sections marked by this symbol explain dangers that might result in

personal injury or death. Always read the associated information

carefully, before performing the indicated procedure.

Please read these advices carefully!

This manual also contains "NOTES" and "HINTS" written in this form.

Attention

Paragraphs preceded by this symbol explain hazards that could

damage the instrument and the connected equipment or may cause

loss of data.

Note

1 General Information

Thorlabs' fiber-based, compact, Czerny-Turner CCD spectrometers are available in three mod-

els. Two are sub-nanometer accuracy models that provide detection in the 350 - 700 nm

(CCS110x) or 500 - 1000 nm (CCS175x) range. The CCS200 offers a wide 200 - 1000 nm

spectral range with better than 2 nm accuracy. With the small footprint (122 mm x 79 mm x

29.5 mm), all units share features with larger, more expensive spectrometers such as the ability

to be synchronized via a TTL trigger input (up to 100 Hz) and to automatically compensate for

noise created by dark current.

The CCS Series Spectrometer is designed for general laboratory use. Integrated routines allow

averaging, smoothing, peak indexing, as well as saving and recalling data sets.

Application software OSA-SW

OSA-SW is an acronym for "Optical Spectrum Analyzer Software". This software acquires dir-

ect, transmittance and absorbance measurements in conjunction with Thorlabs' optical spec-

trum analyzers and CCD spectrometers.

Attention

Do not connect the CCS Series Spectrometer to a PC prior to installing the OSA-SW Applica-

tion! The installation package includes CCS Series Spectrometer specific drivers and software

that must be installed before the CCS Series Spectrometer is connected to the PC for the first

time.

After the installation, the software communicates with all Thorlabs CCD based CCS Series

Spectrometers and OSA20x Optical Spectrum Analyzers. Additionally, a number of virtual

devices are included to demonstrate the functionality of OSA-SW: five for OSA20x Analyzers

and one for CCS spectrometers.

1.1 Safety

Attention

The safety of any system incorporating the equipment is the responsibility of the assembler of

the system.

All statements regarding safety of operation and technical data in this instruction manual will

only apply when the unit is operated correctly as it was designed for.

The CCS Series Spectrometer must not be operated in explosion endangered environments!

Do not obstruct the air ventilation slots in the housing!

Do not remove covers!

Do not open the cabinet. There are no parts serviceable by the operator inside!

This precision device is only serviceable if properly packed into the complete original packaging

including the plastic foam sleeves. If necessary, ask for replacement packaging.

Refer servicing to qualified personnel!

Only with written consent from Thorlabs may changes to single components be made or com-

ponents not supplied by Thorlabs be used.

CCS Series Spectrometer

Attention

The following statement applies to the products covered in this manual, unless otherwise

specified herein. The statement for other products will appear in the accompanying

documentation.

Note This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital

device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable

protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial envir-

onment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not in-

stalled and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to

radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harm-

ful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own ex-

pense.

Users that change or modify the product described in this manual in a way not expressly ap-

proved by Thorlabs (party responsible for compliance) could void the user’s authority to operate

the equipment.

Thorlabs is not responsible for any radio television interference caused by modifications of this

equipment or the substitution or attachment of connecting cables and equipment other than

those specified by Thorlabs. The correction of interference caused by such unauthorized

modification, substitution or attachment will be the responsibility of the user.

The use of shielded I/O cables is required when connecting this equipment to any and all

optional peripheral or host devices. Failure to do so may violate FCC and ICES rules.

Attention

Mobile telephones, cellular phones or other radio transmitters are not to be used within the

range of three meters of this unit since the electromagnetic field intensity may then exceed the

maximum allowed disturbance values according to IEC 61326-1.

This product has been tested and found to comply with the limits according to IEC 61326-1 for

using connection cables shorter than 3 meters (9.8 feet).
