ADC2000-PCI Overview 1 Overview The ADC2000-PCI internal PC A/D Converter is a plug-and-play high-speed analog-to-digital (A/D) converter designed for hassle-free instrument-to-PC interfacing. An A/D converter is necessary to interface all Ocean Optics spectrometers to PCs. ADC2000-PCI A/D Converter The ADC2000-PCI fits into a PCI-bus slot on any PCI-equipped desktop PC. It couples to any S2000 spectrometer via a DB-37 to DB-25 interface cable provided with the ADC2000-PCI unit.
Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI 2 Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI This chapter provides instruction on installing and configuring the ADC2000-PCI: Install OOIBase32 Before installing your ADC2000-PCI hardware, you must first install the OOIBase32 Spectrometer Operating Software. It is critical that the software be installed prior to hardware installation. Consult the OOIBase32 operating instructions for specific installation instructions.
Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI 4. Locate an open PCI-bus slot on the PC motherboard and remove the slot protector from the rear of the PC. PCI slots on the PC motherboard (shorter white slots) 5. Insert the A/D card into a PCI slot on the motherboard. Press down gently and rock the card back and forth until it settles firmly into the PCI slot. The card must be fully seated in the motherboard for proper operation. 6.
Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI 2. Select S2000/PC2000/USB2000/HR2000 from the Spectrometer Type drop-down menu. Select ADC2000-PCI from the A/D Converter Type drop-down menu. Select your PCI Card channel from the PCI Card Identifier drop-down menu. Select 0 if this is the only ADC2000-PCI in your system. Then, click the OK button. The User Name and Serial Number screen appears. 3. Enter a user name and software serial number, and then click the Next button.
Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI A/D Interface Tab Enter the same values as you did in the Configure Hardware dialog box in the first part of this section. When you exit OOIBase32, this data is stored in the .spec file. Setting OOIBase32 Parameters Select Edit > Settings from the OOIBase32 menu bar to open the OOIBase32 Settings screen. From this screen, you can configure the following items: • Configure options for saving, opening, and printing data • Associate .
Installing and Using the ADC2000-PCI Configuring Data Acquisition Select Spectrum > Configure Data Acquisition from the OOIBase32 menu bar to open the Configure Data Acquisition screen. From this screen, you can configure your data acquisition parameters such as integration time, averaging, boxcar smoothing, and several other parameters.
Troubleshooting 3 Troubleshooting The following sections contain information on resolving some of the most common problems encountered when using the ADC2000-PCI: Troubleshooting Device Driver Installation Issue: After connecting the ADC2000-PCI to the PC, the Add New Hardware Wizard does not locate a device driver for the ADC2000-PCI. Ultimately, a message appears stating that Windows has not installed a device driver.
Troubleshooting Resolution: To resolve synchronization problems: 1. Exit OOIBase32 software. 2. Restart the PC. 3. Restart the OOIBase32 software.
