PC Software & Drivers
This section describes various ways to interface the Ophir meter to your PC as well as the software options available.
The StarLab application together with an Ophir meter turns your PC or laptop into a full-fledged laser power/energy meter. Supports most Ophir laser power/energy sensors. Up to 8 sensors can be displayed at once on one PC. By using the Ophir COM Object, you can control the device from your own application. Supports the Ariel, Centauri, StarBright, StarLite, Juno, Juno+, Nova II, Vega, Pulsar-1/2/4, Quasar, EA-1 and Ariel devices.
Library supplied for a complete measurement interface with most of our USB speaking devices (Centauri, StarBright, StarLite, Juno, Juno+, Nova-II, Pulsar, Vega). Makes use of our new COM object.
Embedded s/w for StarLite Laser Power / Energy Meter
Notes: Firmware update is performed by downloading the installer from Ophir website (see link above).
The firmware can't be updated via StarLab.

Software - LabVIEW Solutions
Ophir has long recognized the growing LabVIEW community of developers. For over 10 years, we have been providing
LabVIEW libraries for all of our devices. These are full open-source applications that can be used as is or tailored by the LabVIEW programmer to his specific needs.
These starter applications are basic software only that allows the LabVIEW programmer to experiment freely to fully feel
the strength of our devices’ respective command sets. These applications contain VIs (Virtual Instruments) to control the instrument. You can combine VIs to create successively larger and more versatile larger VIs by simply connecting them together. Users can create sophisticated, custom applications in minutes. In most cases, applications can be built and tested even before the instrument even arrives. The versatility of these tools is limitless.
All of our LabVIEW libraries can be downloaded from our web site: www.ophiropt.com
