Ophir\u2019s renowned StarLab<\/a> software is an easy-to-use, yet powerful, laser measurement application which turns a PC into a laser power\/energy multi-channel analysis workstation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, StarLab is a ready-made closed PC application and communicates with Ophir Power Meters and PC Interfaces only.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s say you are a software programmer developing an application\nfor a system in which you would like to integrate measurement and control of several\ninstruments, together with the power measurements of a laser, into one PC application\nthat you write custom made for your own specific needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For this purpose, we provide the Ophir COM Object Automation<\/strong><\/a>,<\/strong> which\nfacilitates integrating laser power meter measurements into your software application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the StarLab application is installed, it automatically\ninstalls the necessary Ophir USB device drivers & registers the COM object\non the PC. These are required to communicate with Ophir power meters and PC\ninterfaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also installed on the PC in the Automation Examples subdirectory\nof StarLab are various code examples <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These example applications demonstrate how to incorporate the\nOphir COM object into software written in different programming languages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Included in the StarLab installation package are the following demo\nclient applications:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C++, C#, Java, <\/strong>LabVIEW<\/strong><\/a>,\nMATLAB, Python and VB.NET<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These can be found in the\nfollowing directory after installing StarLab:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

C:\\Program Files\\Ophir\nOptronics\\StarLab 3.xx\\Automation Examples\\Com object.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

These demo examples are fully functional applications, freeing\nthe programmer to concentrate on his application, leaving the communication\ndetails to us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
