Abstract
A spectrophotometerincludes built-in detectorand external detector. When a mountable/removable optical path switcheris installed in a specimen chamber, measurement based on detection signals from built-in detectoris replaced by measurement based on detection signals from external detector. The spectrophotometer further includes a measurement data threshold-value storage unitthat stores threshold value T for measurement data from built-in detectoror external detector, and a light-receiving detector recognition unitthat recognizes which detector is able to receive the measuring light beam based on the results of a comparison between threshold value T and measurement data from built-in detectoror external detectorwhile the measuring light beam is being introduced into specimen chamber
