System Requirements
You can use the QE Pro’s USB connectivity with any computer that meets the requirements for the
spectrometer operating software being used (Windows XP/Vista/Windows 7, Mac OS X and Linux). See
About Ocean Optics Software.
Alternately, the QE Pro has a serial port for connecting to PCs and PLCs. However, this connection
method requires an external power supply to power the QE Pro, the Breakout Box, and a serial cable.
