AvaSpec Bluetooth Wireless Fiber Optic Spectrometer

All AvaSpec spectrometers with USB2 platform can be delivered with the optional Bluetooth^® wireless interface. This interface enables wireless communication between PC and spectrometer over a distance of up to 100 meters. Optionally an extended Bluetooth^® adapter (-BTX) can be used that enables a range of 250 meters, as implemented standard in the HortiSpec spectrometer (page 134).

Wireless spectrometers are extremely useful  for portable applications or spectrometers to be used in environments, where no PCs can be installed.

Bluetooth^® spectrometers are standard supplied with a dipole miniature size antenna and a Tornado USB adapter for the PC to allow easy installation and configuration. The AvaSoft software automatically recognizes Bluetooth^® spectrometer the PC has been paired with.

Bluetooth^® spectrometers also have an USB2 interface, but for wireless communication need an external 5-12VDC power supply and are therefore equipped with a switch (-SPU2) for either USB2 buspower or external power. For optimal portability we recommend to use the Bluetooth^®  spectrometer with a 12VDC Batterypack.
