Which spectrometer?

There are so many possible answers to your question that I will start with a simple question myself.

If it is a VISA device, then send it SCPI commands through the VISA WRITE and read back the instrument response with VISA READ.  Always remember to use the VISA CLOSE once your task is completed.
