Request Spectra
Initiates a spectral acquisition. The Flame will acquire a complete spectrum (3840 pixel values).
The data is returned in bulk transfer mode through EP2 and EP6 depending on the USB
Communication Speed. The table below provides the pixel order overview for the 2 different
speeds. The pixel values are decoded as described below.

Return Format
The format for the returned spectral data is dependent upon the USB communication speed.
The format for both High Speed (480 Mbps) and Full Speed (12Mbps) is shown below. All pixel
values are 16 bit values which are organized in LSB | MSB order. There is an additional packet
containing one value that is used as a flag to insure proper synchronization between the PC and
Flame.
