Welcome!
SpectroEye is a spectrophotometer which, just as all new
GretagMacbeth products, has a fully modular structure, and so is
extremely flexible and easy to use. The purpose of this manual is
to illustrate the various fields of application and how to integrate
SpectroEye into your working environment in the most effective way
possible.
We hope you enjoy reading the manual, and enjoy working with
your SpectroEye as well.
We welcome any suggestions or ideas you may have for
improvements. Contact us through your authorised dealer,
or via the Internet!
