GL SPECTROSOFT M Usage
Multi-purpose
Parameters like CCT, chromaticity error, peak wavelength, dominant wavelength, CRI, color coordinate values in accordance with CIE standards, ISO, Metamerism Index, PAR, PPF, PPFD, photobiological safety, binning, MacAdam ellipses, and much more can be computed, evaluated, presented, or reported using GL SPECTROSOFT M.
Experiments
With the help of this light measurement software, a user can experiment with the data they have collected. They can test the data (PAS/FAIL, for example), analyze it using CIE, ISO, and other international standards, compare it to other data (reference window), and perform calculations using various parameters (e.g., counting luminous intensity values).
One platform, all devices
With GL SPECTROSOFT M, integrating sphere or goniometer systems is as simple as plugging in and using any of our spectrometers. Our products are made to grow with your company and do away with the needless learning curves that come with switching software.
GL SPECTROSOFT M Features
OS behind our spectrometers, optical spheres and probes
The user can be confident that the program is displaying absolute values because GL SPECTROSOFT consistently uses the appropriate calibration file for the instruments (the software detects a unique coded system held in the measurement adapters) (e.g., the measurement made with the sets GL SPECTIS 1.0 and GL OPTI SPHERE shows values of luminous flux in lumens).
Flexible
Our robust light measurement software has a great deal of configurable options that can be tailored to the needs of the customer. For example, you can build your own report template, choose from a variety of parameters that are always available in the quick window “selected results,” or customize the layout to suit your needs.
Data storage
Every measurement value is kept on file and is always accessible for comparison with fresh measurements. To share files with your team or clients, save them locally in our file format or export them to Word or Excel.
Constantly improving
The LED market and its standards are always evolving, so why shouldn’t the equipment you use? We continue to make significant investments in our development and uphold strong ties with the standards and market committees in order to provide our clients with comprehensive light measuring solutions.
