Spectropolarimeter's Software: Spectra Manager

Spectra Manager is a menu applicatiom that is used to start spectra measurement and analysis and environment setting using the spectropolarimeter, and selecting, for starting up and shutting down the Spectropolarimeter, as well as for setting the communication port.

The main menu shows the standard Measurement and Analysis program menu. When additional programs are installed, they are added to this menu. The Analysis menu appears on the left and the Measurement menu appears on the right. To start a program, double-click on the program in the menu. If the Spectropolarimeter has not already been started, both the program and spectrofluorometer will start simultaneously.

The Application menu is used to start-up and exit Measurement and Analysis programs.

The Instruments menu is used to start and stop hardware, set the communication port, and show the instrument version information.

The following menu show the spectra analysis window for the camphor standard solution at 52 ^oC. Note the position of the vertical red cursor give the maximum and the intensity of the signal, in mdeg. The lower portion shows the HT voltage variation as a function of wavelength. The SpecManager can be copied to any Windows environment and data analyzed, viewed, or plotted.

The file search menu is shown below with details of on how the campher spectra were obtained.

The Inteval Data Analysis is shown below. The vertical red line shows the intensity at 192 nm. See an applications for protein analysis.
