  • Main cable for SPOX module - 0.8m

    This is the official 0.8m main cable for the Shelyak SPOX module, featuring a Tiny XLR 4-pin female connector at each end. It provides the essential connection for remote control of the calibration lamps (Tungsten, Neon/Argon) of Shelyak's Alpy 600 and LISA calibration modules (through the SE0183 adapter cord) and of the Lhires III.

    0.8m Cable with 4-Pin Connectors for SPOX Control

    This 0.8m cable is the specific interconnect required for the SPOX remote control box. Its dual Tiny XLR 4-pin female connectors ensure a secure and reliable link for managing your spectrograph's calibration lamps, either manually from the box or via a USB connection to your computer.

  • What is the 0.8m Main Cable for SPOX used for?

    This cable connects the Shelyak SPOX module, which is a small control box used for remotely operating the flat-field (Tungsten) and wavelength calibration (Neon/Argon) lamps of compatible Shelyak spectrographs.

    Which Shelyak spectrographs are compatible with the SPOX module and this 0.8m cable?

    The SPOX module and this main cable are designed for use with the Alpy 600, LISA, and Lhires III spectrographs from Shelyak Instruments. The Alpy 600 and LISA also need the SPOX adapter cord (SE0183), and the Lhires III must be a unit shipped since 2016 or fitted with the calibration upgrade kit.

    What type of connectors does the SPOX Main Cable have?

    The cable is terminated with a Tiny XLR 4-pin female connector at both ends, ensuring a secure connection to the SPOX module and the spectrograph.

    Is this the correct cable for controlling the Lhires III calibration lamps from the SPOX box?

    Yes. This 0.8m cable is one of the two SPOX main cables (0.8 m or 5 m) that link a Lhires III to the SPOX module for remote lamp control. Your Lhires III must be a unit shipped since 2016 or fitted with the calibration upgrade kit.

    Can I use this 0.8m cable to connect my Alpy 600's SPOX module directly to a computer?

    No. This cable connects the SPOX module to the spectrograph itself. The SPOX module has a separate USB port for connecting to a computer for software control.

    Do I need this specific SPOX Main Cable or can I use a generic one?

    You need this specific cable. The use of Tiny XLR 4-pin connectors is not a common standard for generic cables, and using the official Shelyak cable ensures correct pinout and reliable operation of your calibration lamps.
