Smart Sensor to Pulsar to PC
2.2.2 Power Meters
Ophir’s 1-4 channel Pulsar interface turns your PC or laptop into
a full fledged Ophir multi-channel laser power/energy meter.
Just install the software, plug the sensor into the Pulsar and the
USB cable from the Pulsar to the PC USB port. With the Pulsar-4,
Pulsar-2 and Pulsar-1 series, you can connect up to 4 sensors to
each module, monitor each pulse at up to 25kHz and utilize
external trigger.
