Software to download

	Software	Description
	Cobolt Monitor	Cobolt Monitor^TM is a combined GUI for all Cobolt laser models. The GUI supports simultaneous connection and monitoring of multiple lasers, configured for either RS232 or USB2.0. The GUI automatically searches for new Cobolt lasers connected to the computer and presents them listed.
	USB Driver	To connect to the laser via USB, the USB driver must be installed. When installed, a virtual COM port will be created to communicate with the laser.
	Lab View	Used to integrate the Cobolt lasers into Labview environment.
	GitHub	See a list of suggested code in C++ or Python on GitHub.
	Integration into imaging software	A Micro-manager driver is available for Cobolt Skyra lasers. Please search for and install the “Cobolt Official” driver from the Micro-manager library. If you experience any difficulties with your Micro-manager integration, please contact us at: info@coboltlasers.com.
