Lightscan 2 Software

LightScan software was developed by Sarspec to be simple to work with, efficient, and powerful.

Within a few minutes, users can get the best results without complex settings. LightScan 2.0 Software reflects 10 years of customer feedback and applications development.

One Software,
Multiple Applications

With this modular configuration you are able to perform a wide range of spectroscopic applications, including Absorbance, Transmittance, Reflectance, Fluorescence, Color Measurement, Kinetics, Quantification and Spectrum for raw spectral information.

Full control of your spectrometer

Control your spectrometer in real time and optimize it for the best performance in your application. Define you integration time automatically, perform autodark with an integrated shutter, select wavelength calibrations for multiple slits, use the triggering functions to synchronize it with external devices, etc

Key Features

  • Perform time measurements with Kinetics mode

    The Kinetics module allows acquiring the intensity at one or more wavelengths simultaneously in a period of time that is defined by the user, taking the best advantages of our spectrometer technology. This module is quite useful when following chemical reactions with the quantification of reagents and products using Absorbance results.

  • Powerful quantitative analysis tool

    With the powerful calibration module you can build your calibration curves automatically. This can be done for every application and allows you to quantify directly your samples without the need of a third party software.

  • Simple User Interface

    The application modules were designed to perform specific analyses based on conditions and the data acquired on the Spectrum Tab. For all modules, LightScan 2 offers a simple and intuitive interface where results can be obtained in simple and direct steps. This way the user will only need to work with the essential information for a specific application.

  • Even Color Measurement!

    Lightscan 2 it's so complete that you can even perform color measurements, with results in color coordinates such as XYZ, CIELab, RGB, HEX and CYMK. If you set one of your samples as a standard, all your samples can be compared to the defined standard, allowing the measurement of color differences. This can be done with different illuminants and observers to match CIE color spaces.

  • Easy viewing of your spectra

    Using Lightscan 2 you'll be able to visualize and interact with your spectra in real time. The available tools for graphic handling include: Zoom, Autoscale T, Pan, Manual Scale, Full Scale, Markers, Find Maximum, Delete All and Screenshot.
