Software Issues:
Why is the maximum sample time for a spectrometer set at 1000 milliseconds?
Does Logger Pro support Ocean Optics Spectrometers on a 64-bit Windows system?
Why are there blank data table cells in my spectrometer absorbance data?
My spectrometer is connected to a device and I get the error message, "Could not collect values from device," or "calibration failed" during calibration.
My Spectrometer is not working properly. It won't calibrate or is giving very noisy data.
How can I overlay two emission spectra graphs in Logger Pro?
How can I display both Absorbance and % Transmittance, from Spectrometer measurements, in Logger Pro 3?
I collected Absorbance data and then Fluorescence data (or emission data) with my spectrometer. I am now collecting Absorbance data again and my data does not look correct.
Is there a way to toggle on/off the colored background behind the absorbance spectrum graph?
Ocean Optics spectrometers fail to connect to a computer running Logger Pro for Windows (Windows 8,8.1,or 10).

Experiments:
Do you have labs written for your spectrophotometers?
Can I do blackbody experiments with the Vernier or Ocean Optics Spectrometers?
Do you have a spectrometer that can measure DNA concentration and purity?
Can I use my spectrometer to collect data at one wavelength (kinetics or Beer's law)?
How do I get an A260/A280 value with your UV-VIS spectrometers in Logger Pro?
Why is the absorbance reading on my device (spectrometer/colorimeter) unstable or nonlinear at values above 1.0?
Can I have my spectrometer capture full wavelength spectra episodically?
Do you have instructions on how to use a spectrophotometer to conduct the Photosynthesis lab?
Why can't I see better Hydrogen emission lines with my spectrometer?

SPECIFICATIONS
Specs are different for each Spectrometer. See:
Which Spectrometer Should I Buy?

CALIBRATION
-Calibrate…
In Absorbance mode? Yes.
In Emission mode? No.

-Calibration process for Absorbance mode: Use a USB cable to connect the Spectrometer to a computer. Run Logger Pro 3.6 (or newer). Select Calibrate from the Experiment menu. Follow the instructions in the Calibrate dialog box.
