DLL Interface Packages and Libraries for Windows and Linux

By Avantes BV

However, most OEM customers prefer to develop their own controlling software, which is why we offer a 32-bit and native 64-bit dynamic link library (DLL), also known as SDK or API, for Microsoft Windows and interface packages for Linux. This Windows library comes with several sample programs in LabView, C#, C++, Qt, Visual Basic.NET, MatLab and Delphi to get you started with controlling your spectrometers. Avantes also has a Linux API with sample programs for customers working with open-source board PCs. For our OEM customers who are interested in addressing our instruments at a more fundamental level (USB or RS-232), we offer a low-level interface protocol description.

Detectors

Our detectors cover the wide wavelength range of 200 to 2500 nm, or from ultraviolet to visible to near-infrared wavelengths. For each application we offer a wide selection of detectors which can also be combined into a multi-channel spectrometer configuration. The number of spectrometer channels per system are only limited by computing power and USB specifications. Avantes will assist you in making a choice from our line-up of different detectors and assist you with the configuration for an appropriate setup. Multiple operation modes can be selected, including (un)synchronized mode, trigger mode, and/or continuous-acquisition mode. All this is supported by the DLL interface packages we offer. If you need more channels later on, you can simply add them to the system and you will be ready to go.

Spectrometer Housing Options

For OEM customers that require housed spectrometers, we provide a number of single-channel and multi-channel spectrometer housing options, including a 19″ rack-mountable enclosure that can hold up to 10 spectrometers. Enclosures can also be made custom to suit your needs.

AvaBench Optical Benches

The AvaBench line of optical benches offers a robust selection of designs and configurations to meet the form factor and technical specifications for every application With several configurations and standard detector options, our AvaBench is configurable to meet your needs. Independent optics and electronics offer greater flexibility and modularity. All instruments are available either as enclosed instruments or OEM modules. Our innovative ultra-low-stray light (ULS) optical bench provides superior stray light rejection in a design which has superb thermal and structural stability. Our high-sensitivity (HS) optical bench is designed for superior throughput and sensitivity with a full 0.22 numerical aperture. The AvaBench optical benches are available separately for integration with a customer’s own electronics or in conjunction with our AS-7010 USB3 and Gigabit Ethernet electronics. This bench is available with the industry-standard SMA-905 or FC/PC connectors, but custom-made, non-fiber-optic entrances can be implemented as well if necessary.
