Ocean Optics Cool Red User Manual

The Cool Red works beautifully as a complement
to mid-infrared analyzers or in any spectroscopy
application where high-intensity infrared light is
required. Cool Red is especially useful for ap­plications in the region from 1000-5000 nm.
For systems that require optical modulation, an
integrated optical shutter can be modulated at
frequencies of up to 200 Hz.

The shutter can be driven externally through a 15­pin digital interface. If no external drive is available,
the shutter can be driven internally by an integrat­ed adjustable square wave generator.

Infrared Light Source

Frequency can be continually adjusted through
the control knob on the front panel from 0.5 Hz
to 200 Hz. The digital output for this signal can be
taken from the same 15-pin interface and used to
synchronize other devices.
