 Our code may work with different models, but we have only tested the above listed models. If you want to use another photometer you can input the readings manually or consider writing a few lines of code in moncalib to support your photometer type. Our code may work with different models, but we have only tested the above listed models.

 Typically you can just connect the USB/Serial device to the Serial cable of the photometer, but for the Topcon you will need a nullmodem connector between the two (this swaps the read/write lines for communication). It looks like this (remember this should **only** be necessary for Topcon). Typically you can just connect the USB/Serial device to the Serial cable of the photometer, but for the Topcon you will need a nullmodem connector between the two (this swaps the read/write lines for communication).
