Optical System
The optical system includes a xenon flash lamp, monochromators,
excitation bandpass filters, emission cut-off filters, PMTs, and
photodiodes.
There are a number of cables and fibers that exit the optics bench and
enter the reading chamber. They are the excitation fibers (thin and black
or red, has a collar and pins), emission fibers (black and fatter, with
attached electrical cord), electrical connector to the read head (green
with brass fitting).

CAUTION! Optical fibers are very fragile, especially the excitation fiber.
Handle cables with extreme care. Do not flex, twist, bend, or stretch the
optical cables.
