Installation and Setup
Software Installation
Use OceanView version 1.5 and above for Flame. You can use OceanView on the following operating systems:
OS X Version 10.5 or later on
Intel processor
Any version released for an x86
or amd64 platform since 2010
*Software may run with previous operating systems but Ocean Insight does not actively support these installations.
Consult the OceanView manual for hardware requirements when using OceanView.
NOTE
Be sure to install the spectroscopy application BEFORE connecting the spectrometer to your PC. The software installs the
drivers required for spectrometer installation. If you do not install the software first, the system will not properly recognize the
spectrometer. If you have already installed the Flame to a computer running on a Windows platform prior to installing the
operating software, consult the Troubleshooting section for information on correcting a corrupt Flame installation.
NOTE
Be sure that you download the correct software package for your computer version (32 or 64-bit). See the Frequently Asked
Questions in Troubleshooting for more information on determining your computer version.
