Abstract
An improvement in a spectrophotometer of an improved apparatus for automatic initialization of the wavelength indexing function of the spectrophotometer. A drive mechanism drives the wavelength indexing movement of the spectrophotometer diffraction grating. The grating is initialized to a grating initialization position by physical opposition of a stop mechanism to the driving when a drive linkage reaches a drive linkage initialization position.
