USB Programmer
Installation and Operation Instructions
Description
The Ocean Optics USB Programmer enables you to reprogram the EEPROM chip in your USB-
enabled Ocean Optics spectrometer. Additionally, in certain situations, the USB Programmer allows
you to recover a corrupt EEPROM program from a USB-enabled Ocean Optics spectrometer (if
EEPROM programming is interrupted in mid-program).
USB Programmer Interface
The USB Programmer offers a simple-to-use interface with intuitive controls that allow you to quickly
and easily manage and correct EEPROM-related issues, should they arise.
Note
The USB Programmer is an extremely powerful tool. You should not make any
changes to your USB devices with the USB Programmer without a compelling reason
to do so.
The following sections provide instructions on both programming EEPROM chips and recovering
corrupt EEPROMs with the USB Programmer.
