WUE Getting Started

Ocean Optics is offering the Wireless USB Extender (WUE), for our USB-interface spectrometers. WUE

allows you to capture data wirelessly or over the Ethernet and is transparent to your computer. WUE can

work with several spectrometers at one time by using a USB hub with the WUE. You can also use several

WUEs simultaneously in your system.

The WUE is IEEE802.11b/g compliant (Wi-Fi). The provided software is compatible with computers

using Windows 2000/XP/Vista or Mac OS X and most wireless networks. It also supports wired Ethernet

connection to your computer (instead of wireless).

WUE provides all functionality as though your spectrometer is connected directly through USB to your

computer, allowing you to operate your spectrometer from any location in the world. Possible

applications for WUE include polling a spectrometer sitting in your lab from a remote location and

changing spectrometer configuration parameters such as integration time and signal averaging while on

the other side of campus.
