Chapter 1

Introduction

Product Overview

Jaz is a community of stackable, modular and autonomous component modules that combine to create a
community of smart sensing instruments that is unfettered by the limits of traditional optical sensing
instrumentation: a powerful microprocessor and onboard display eliminate the need for a PC; stackable,
autonomous instrument modules allow users to customize the system to their changing application needs;
and Ethernet connectivity plus SD card data storage capability facilitate remote operation.

Jaz is built on a platform that expands to include a light source, rechargeable lithium-ion battery and up to
8 spectrometer modules to make Jaz the first analytical instrument easily adaptable for the field, lab or
process environment. Jaz can also connect to a computer via the USB port. When connected through a
USB 2.0 or 1.1, the spectrometer draws power from the host computer. Jaz, like all USB devices, can be
controlled by our SpectraSuite software, a completely modular, Java-based spectroscopy software
platform that operates on Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating systems.

Jaz is extremely adaptable. It can be powered via battery, USB connection, over the Ethernet, or from a
power outlet. The Jaz display can be rotated 180 degrees in either direction and the faceplate itself can be
specified for either orientation. You can order the specific modules needed for your particular application
to be built in the Jaz stack, making Jaz a uniquely customizable scientific instrument and eliminating the
cost of unnecessary components.

Stack of Jaz Modules

013-RD000-000-02-201103 1

System Requirements

You can use the Jaz USB connectivity with any computer that meets the following requirements:

 Operating system is one of the following:

 Windows – 98/Me/2000/XP/Vista/Windows 7
 Apple Macintosh – OS X version 10.0 or later
 Linux – Red Hat 9 or later, Fedora (any version), Debian 3.1 (Sarge), and SUSE (9.0 or

later)

 Ocean Optics’ Overture or SpectraSuite software application installed and configured for use.

EEPROM Utilization

An EEPROM memory chip in each JAZ-S spectrometer module contains wavelength calibration
coefficients, linearity coefficients, and a serial number unique to each individual spectrometer module.
The SpectraSuite software application reads these values directly from the spectrometer, enabling the
ability to “hot-swap” spectrometers between computers without entering the spectrometer coefficients
manually on each computer.

About SpectraSuite

Although Jaz is unique in that it can perform a number of spectroscopy measurements and display results
right on its display screen, SpectraSuite spectrometer operating software is also available to enhance Jaz’s
functionality. SpectraSuite is the latest generation of operating software for all Ocean Optics
spectrometers. It is a completely modular, Java-based spectroscopy software platform that operates on
Windows, Macintosh and Linux operating systems. The software can control any Ocean Optics USB
spectrometer and device, as well as any other manufacturer’s USB instrumentation using the appropriate
drivers.

1: Introduction

SpectraSuite is a user-customizable, advanced acquisition and display program that provides a real-time
interface to a variety of signal-processing functions. With SpectraSuite, you have the ability to perform
spectroscopic measurements (such as absorbance, reflectance, and emission), control all system
parameters, collect and display data in real time, and perform reference monitoring and time acquisition
experiments. Consult the SpectraSuite manual for hardware requirements when using SpectraSuite (see

Product-Related Documentation

).

Sampling System Overview

How Sampling Works

Ocean Optics components function in a sampling system as follows:

1. The user stores reference and dark measurements to correct for instrument response variables.

2. The light from the light source transmits through an optical fiber to the sample.

3. The light interacts with the sample.

4. Another optical fiber collects and transmits the result of the interaction to the spectrometer.

5. The spectrometer measures the amount of light and transforms the data collected by the
spectrometer into digital information.

6. The spectrometer passes the sample information to SpectraSuite.

7. SpectraSuite compares the sample to the reference measurement and displays processed spectral
information.

Interface Options

Jaz is field-portable and can collect data as a free-standing unit from the battery embedded in the stack.
The Jaz stack also has both USB and Ethernet port connectors, enabling you to connect the spectrometer
to a computer via a USB port or to the network via a connection from the Ethernet port to a Power Over
Ethernet (POE) bridge or a switch to the network (e.g., a network hub). Your Jaz stack receives power
from either connection, and both connections enable Jaz to be recognized by SpectraSuite software.

Shipment Components

Jaz is a scalable system, allowing you to design the instrument most appropriate for your application.
However, a typical Jaz system could consist of the following components:

computer. These functions include the following:

 Power on/off the Jaz stack
 Perform absorbance, reflectance and irradiance experiments and read the results on the Jaz

display screen

 View and edit network settings
 View battery charge
 Set display backlight intensity
 Update the flash memory and system information
 Rotate the display screen 180 degrees
 Set date and time
 Control light source modules in the stack

3: Operating Jaz

Powering Your Jaz Unit

The Jaz unit can be powered from the USB connection as well as from the Ethernet connection. You can
also power Jaz using the 5 VDC power supply cable and transformer that came with your unit.

Note

You can plug the power supply into your Jaz unit concurrently with the USB or Ethernet
connection without harming the equipment. This may even be necessary if the USB
connection does not supply sufficient power to drive the Jaz stack, or your Ethernet
connection is not over a POE-enabled switch/hub.

The Jaz stack contains a battery module that should allow for several hours of field operation before the
unit must be recharged. A power save feature dims the screen to 50% intensity, then darkens the screen
totally after 3 minutes of inactivity.

►

Procedure

1. Connect the power supply cable that you received with your Jaz unit from the unit’s power
connector on the JAZ-DPU module to a wall outlet.

2. Press the Power button ( ) in the center of the Jaz unit to power up the Jaz stack.
It can take the Jaz stack 2 – 3 seconds to power up.

Operating the JAZ-PX Module

JAZ- PX Module Overview

The Jaz PX lamp is a pulsed, short arc xenon lamp for UV-VIS applications such as absorbance,
bioreflectance, fluorescence and phosphorescence. The lamp has a specified pulse frequency of 200 Hz
(maximum 500 Hz) and spectral response from 190 – 1100 nm.

WARNING

The PX-2 produces ultraviolet radiation. Direct eye contact can cause permanent
eye damage. Always wear safety eyewear, and never look directly into the light
source.

The JAZ-PX module operates in both free running and triggered modes, allowing its pulses to coordinate
with other devices in the stack. The module contains an SMA connector to couple to other Ocean Optics
accessories such as optical fibers, cuvette holders, probes, etc. (see Additional Equipment Available

).

The JAZ-PX is ideal for field applications such as bioreflectance that require a high-intensity, low-power
light source. In fact, no external power supply is required to operate the JAZ-PX module. When used in
battery power mode, the lamp will operate for approximately 3 hours. An additional external power
supply is avialable through an optional 50 Watt-hour jaz battery extender (see Additional Equipment

Available).

For JAZ-PX module specifications, refer to Appendix B: Specifications.

Caution

The spectrometer module is especially sensitive to heating, so you should be aware
of the effects of heating on spectrometer modules when setting up an experiment,
particularly when using the JAZ-PX module. Since the JAZ-PX does not include a
fan and the Jaz metal housing has high thermal conductivity, heat generated by the
JAZ-PX will be conducted to other modules in the stack.

These effects are most prevalent in applications with long term, continuous
operation of the JAZ-PX at moderate to high flash rates. For short-duration
experiments, these thermal effects are not as prominent.Most significantly, heating
a spectrometer module will cause that spectrometer’s baseline (the measured
intensity when it is not exposed to light) to drift downwards.

Documentation.

Menu Item Description

Intensity Controls the discharge voltage (and thus the flash intensity) of the lamp. Select

400-600V. On battery power, the intensity is restricted to 400V.
Number of Flashes Sets the number of times that the lamp should flash after detecting a trigger event.
Holdoff Time Specifies how long the timing generator should wait after detecting a trigger event

before beginning to flash at the rate specified by the Flash Rate parameter.
Timing Controls Controls used to set the timing behavior of the JAZ-PX module.
Force Trigger An emulated trigger signal that can be used to force trigger events on the JAZ-PX

module at any time. Forcing a trigger causes a trigger event with the same

behavior as if the device detected a stack trigger. Force Trigger will not have any

effect when the device is in Free Running mode, but it is not masked by turning

Trigger Enable off.
Timing Reset Does not reset the timing parameters themselves. Instead, it resets the state of the

counters keeping track of timing in the hardware. This can be useful to “escape”

from long flash periods or large values set in the Number of Flashes parameter.
Free Running Puts the device into Free Running mode. In this mode, the timing generator simply

flashes the lamp at the rate that is specified by the Flash Rate parameter and

ignores trigger events.
Run Forever When enabled, the timing generator will enter Run Forever mode. In this mode, it

will ignore the Number of Flashes parameter setting and continue flashing forever

once it has received a trigger event. It will re-sync to any trigger events that are

detected during that time.
Output Enable When disabled, the lamp will not flash. When set to 1, the lamp will flash as

normal.
Trigger Enable When enabled, the timing generator will not detect trigger events that are

generated by the stack trigger. It will still detect timing events that are generated by

the forced trigger.
Advanced Settings Provides the advanced capability to set parameters and controls directly on the

device, bypassing the Jaz menus. It also contains the power management menu.
Write Register Allows you to write values directly to the control registers of the JAZ-PX module.
Read Register Allows you to write values directly to the control registers of the JAZ-PX module.
Power Mode Sets the power mode of the JAZ-PX module to either battery power or external

power. You must manually set the power mode to external power to access

intensities greater than 0 (400V) and flash rates higher than 200 Hz (5 msec).

Using the JAZ-PX module on Jaz battery power at flash rates greater than 200 Hz

can result in unexpected behavior.

Setting JAZ-PX for Free Running Mode

In Free Running mode, the lamp simply flashes at a given rate and is not synchronized with any other
elements of the system. This mode is only suitable when the integration time is much longer than the flash
rate.

sec).

Setting JAZ-PX for Triggered Mode

Some applications may require you to synchronize the various elements in the system to a system-wide
trigger signal. This mode would be comparable to the legacy “single strobe” mode in that the PX lamp
flashes can be synchronized to the spectrometer integration periods. However, the procedure below will
result in multiple synchronized flashes per integration period rather than just a single flash per integration
period.

Procedure

1. Set the JAZ-PX module to turn Strobe Enable on using PX Lamp | Enable Strobe. The lamp

4: Operating the JAZ-PX Module

Operating JAZ-PX from SpectraSuite

Although the JAZ-PX module’s internal timing cannot be set directly from SpectraSuite, this software can
still easily control the PX flash by selecting the appropriate triggering options. To control the JAZ-PX via
SpectraSuite, the JAZ-PX module should operate in Triggered mode (not Free Running mode) and use
the Jaz internal trigger to control its flash timing. Ideally, the Jaz internal trigger should also be used to
synchronize the lamp flashes to the integration periods of any spectrometers in the system. Additionally,
the output of the JAZ-PX can be quickly enabled or disabled via the Strobe/Lamp Enable check box
above the graph.

Getting Started using JAZ-PX with SpectraSuite

► Procedure

Synchronizing a Spectrometer Module to a JAZ-PX Module (recommended)

► Procedure

1. Highlight the Acquisition |Channel x | Int Time line in the Data Sources pane for the channel
that you wish to synchronize.

2. Select the External Hardware menu item. Although this option is named External Hardware, it

really just selects the Jaz stack trigger as the trigger source for the JAZ-PX module. Since we
have set the stack trigger to be driven by the DPU’s internal trigger (Step 4 above), this internal
trigger will synchronize the PX and the start of the integration period. (Note that the length of the
integration period is still set by the Integration Period field.)

Caution

Set the stack trigger source to Internal (Step 3 above) before setting the
spectrometer’s trigger source to External Hardware or the spectrometer will freeze.
To return the spectrometer module to Free Running mode, you must assert a trigger
pulse through the Jaz external trigger, or you must restart the Jaz.

Operating the JAZ-INDY Module

JAZ- INDY Module Overview

The Jaz Indy is a multifunction module that allows the Jaz system to communicate with data standards

common to industrial applications – in particular, RS-232 and RS-485 – and provides both analog and
digital inputs/outputs. When combined with the Jaz triggering capabilities and multichannel capacity, the
Indy module makes Jaz an attractive optical-sensing option for multipoint sampling, reference monitoring
and other applications in process and lab environments.

The Jaz Indy Module is installed in the vertical Jaz stack and operates as part of the fully integrated
spectrometer system. The module has 4 analog I/Os software-configurable to -5 to +5 volts and 8 digital
I/Os. Data for analog inputs and outputs can be processed in values such as volts or counts. The module
complies with RoHS, CE and FCC Part 15, Class A requirements.

JAZ-INDY Module Features

 Experiments connect directly to Indy module for analog and digital I/O
 Enables Jaz to communicate with other devices via RS-232/RS-485 standards
 Provides measurement and control for portable, laboratory and “light-industrial” setups

Calibrating the JAZ-INDY Module

Your JAZ-INDY module is calibrated at the factory, but you can use the procedures in this section to
recalibrate the module so that it matches your equipment.

 You can calibrate the following on the JAZ-INDY module:
 Four voltage outputs

013-RD000-000-02-201103 41

5: Operating the JAZ-INDY Module

 Four single-ended voltage inputs and the two differential inputs
 4-20mA transmitter
 4-20mA receiver

Calibrating the Voltage Outputs

The JAZ-INDY module provides four analog voltage outputs on its 26-pin connector (outputs 14 are
mapped to pins 5, 14, 23, and 4 respectively, where pins 2, 12, or 15 can be used as analog ground).

►

Procedure

1. Connect an external, calibrated voltmeter (providing at least 5 total digits resolution) to each
output pin to calibrate it. No load should be connected to the output pin; it should be connected
to a voltmeter and nothing else.

2. Set the output voltage (in counts) until the voltmeter reads as close as possible to -4.5V. Record
this value to be used later.

3. Set the output voltage (in counts) until the voltmeter reads as close as possible to 0.0V. Record
this value to be used later.

4. Set the output voltage (in counts) until the voltmeter reads as close as possible to 4.5V. Record
this value to be used later.

5. Using the Jaz menu or SpectraSuite software (see Calibrating the 4-20mA Transmitter

The JAZ-INDY module provides a 4-20mA current controller that must be calibrated. There are only two
setpoints for this controller: 4mA and 20mA. The controller can be calibrated by passing the current
directly through a digital multimeter (ensure first that the meter is rated to withstand at least 30mA to
prevent damage). JAZ-INDY provides an excitation source that can be used to power the current
transmitter (pin 19). If you use this internal source, set it to 20V (this can be done in SpectraSuite) and
ground the output of the current loop (after passing through the multimeter) back to the JAZ-INDY
module (using any of the ground pins).

Calibrating the 4-20mA Receiver

Once the 4-20mA transmitter has been calibrated, it can be used to calibrate the receiver.

►

Procedure

1. Move the ground connection from the current loop used in calibrating the 4-20mA transmitter so
that it is instead connected to pin 11 (4-20 Sense).

2. Vary the current output of the 4-20mA transmitter until 4mA is reached.

3. In the Jaz menu, select Calibrate | 4-20 mA Rx | Minimum. Set the mA value, if needed, to 4.0
and then select Sample 4.0mA.

4.

Select Calibrate | 4-20 mA Rx | Maximum, then repeat this process for the 20mA setpoint.
Operating JAZ-INDY from SpectraSuite), select the voltage output to be calibrated:

5: Operating the JAZ-INDY Module

a. Select Minimum, then change the voltage to -4.5 and set the counts to the value you

measured in Step 2.
b. Select Zero and enter the counts measured in Step 3.
c. Select Maximum, then change the voltage to 4.5 and set the counts to the value you measured

in Step 4.

7. Repeat this procedure for each of the output channels.

Calibrating the Voltage Inputs

Once the voltage outputs are calibrated, they can be used to calibrate the voltage inputs. These can be
found on pins 3, 13, 22, and 21. Note that the output voltage may sag slightly when connected to the
voltage inputs, so it is necessary to keep the voltmeter connected to the joined input and output pins to
compensate.

►

Procedure

1. Set the output voltage (in counts) until the voltmeter reads as close as possible to -4.5V.

2. Using the Jaz menu or SpectraSuite software (see Calibrating the 4-20mA Transmitter

prevent damage). JAZ-INDY provides an excitation source that can be used to power the current
transmitter (pin 19). If you use this internal source, set it to 20V (this can be done in SpectraSuite) and
ground the output of the current loop (after passing through the multimeter) back to the JAZ-INDY
module (using any of the ground pins).

Calibrating the 4-20mA Receiver

Once the 4-20mA transmitter has been calibrated, it can be used to calibrate the receiver.

►

Procedure

1. Move the ground connection from the current loop used in calibrating the 4-20mA transmitter so
that it is instead connected to pin 11 (4-20 Sense).

2. Vary the current output of the 4-20mA transmitter until 4mA is reached.

3. In the Jaz menu, select Calibrate | 4-20 mA Rx | Minimum. Set the mA value, if needed, to 4.0
and then select Sample 4.0mA.

4.

Select Calibrate | 4-20 mA Rx | Maximum, then repeat this process for the 20mA setpoint.

Operating JAZ-I

a. Select Minimum, and change the voltage to -4.5V. Then select Sample at -4.50V. This will

update the counts automatically.

c. Set the output voltage (in counts) until the voltmeter reads 4.5V. Then select Calibrate |

Voltage In | ●Maximum, set the voltage to 4.5V and select ●Sample at 4.5V.

6.

Repeat this procedure for each of the input channels.

Note

There are two special channels (Vin 1 – Vin 2 and Vin 3 – Vin 4) that are differential (the
hardware finds the difference between the corresponding input pins). To calibrate these,
You must use two voltage inputs at once and set them to opposite values (e.g., set one to
+4.5V, the other to -4.5V, to calibrate the differential input at +9V). The process is the
same as described above, except that the differential inputs should be calibrated at -9V,

0.0V, and 9V.

For the 0.0V measurement, set both of the voltage outputs being driven in to zero. For the
non-zero measurements, both voltage input/output pairs should be confirmed on the
external voltmeter prior to finishing the calibration.

Calibrating the 4-20mA Transmitter

The JAZ-INDY module provides a 4-20mA current controller that must be calibrated. There are only two
setpoints for this controller: 4mA and 20mA. The controller can be calibrated by passing the current
directly through a digital multimeter (ensure first that the meter is rated to withstand at least 30mA to
prevent damage). JAZ-INDY provides an excitation source that can be used to power the current
transmitter (pin 19). If you use this internal source, set it to 20V (this can be done in SpectraSuite) and
ground the output of the current loop (after passing through the multimeter) back to the JAZ-INDY
module (using any of the ground pins).

Mac Operating Systems

Since there are no device files for Jaz in a Mac operating system, you should not encounter any problems
if you installed the spectrometer before the SpectraSuite software.

Linux Operating Systems

For Linux operating systems, all you need to do is install the SpectraSuite software, then unplug and
replug in the spectrometer. Technically, the driver files for Linux simply give nonprivileged users
permission to use newly connected hardware. There isn’t any long-term harm to plugging in the device
before installing the software.

Jaz Troubleshooting Tips

The following table provides additional information for troubleshooting Jaz issues. If these suggested
solutions do not solve the problem, please contact us for Technical Support (also see Service

6: Maintenance

Jaz display blanks out Jaz has an automatic screensaver

that turns on 3 minutes after the
last key press.

I plugged in the Ethernet
connection after the Jaz
powered up, and now see
a "Network Unplugged"
message when "View
Settings" is selected.

Jaz does not
communicate with
SpectraSuite via USB.

Jaz can get an IP
address and can be
pinged over Ethernet, but
won’t otherwise
communicate.

Jaz needs to boot completely
before initiating USB
communication.

The battery is nearly empty,
causing Jaz to lose the
connection.

While any key press will bring back
the display, pressing the SAVE key
(floppy disk) is recommended since
other keys might cause an unwanted
command to be executed. A future
release of the firmware will ignore the
first key press when restoring the
display from screen-saver operation.

If you select #Edit Settings and select
Auto (DHCP), the Jaz will try again to
acquire a network address.

Restart Jaz and wait until it displays
the menu screen before starting (or
re-scanning devices) in SpectraSuite.

Plug Jaz into the wall power
receptacle or use the Power over
Ethernet capability.

Appendix A

Calibrating the Wavelength of

Jaz

Overview

This appendix describes how to calibrate the wavelength of your spectrometer. Though each spectrometer
is calibrated before it leaves Ocean Optics, the wavelength for all spectrometers will drift slightly as a
function of time and environmental conditions. Ocean Optics recommends periodically recalibrating the
Jaz spectrometer.

About Wavelength Calibration

You are going to be solving the following equation, which shows that the relationship between pixel
number and wavelength is a third-order polynomial:



= I + C1 p + C2 p2 + C3 p

p

Where:



= the wavelength of pixel p

I = the wavelength of pixel 0

= the first coefficient (nm/pixel)

C

1

= the second coefficient (nm/pixel2)

C

2

= the third coefficient (nm/pixel3)

C

3

You will be calculating the value for I and the three Cs.

A: Calibrating the Wavelength of Jaz

Calibrating the Spectrometer

Preparing for Calibration

To recalibrate the wavelength of your spectrometer, you need the following components:

 A light source capable of producing spectral lines

Note

Ocean Optics’ HG-1 Mercury-Argon lamp is ideal for recalibration. If you do not have an
HG-1, you need a light source that produces several (at least 4-6) spectral lines in the
wavelength region of your spectrometer.

 A Jaz spectrometer module
 An optical fiber (for spectrometers without a built-in slit, a 50-
 A spreadsheet program (Excel or Quattro Pro, for example) or a calculator that performs third-

order linear reg

ressions

m fiber works best)

Note

If you are using Microsoft Excel, choose Tools | Add-Ins and check AnalysisToolPak
and AnalysisTookPak-VBA.

Calibrating the Wavelength of the Spectrometer

► Procedure

Perform the steps below to calibrate the wavelength of the spectrometer:

1. Place SpectraSuite into Scope mode and take a spectrum of your light source. Adjust the
integration time (or the A/D conversion frequency) until there are several peaks on the screen that
are not off-scale.

2. Move the cursor to one of the peaks and position the cursor so that it is at the point of maximum
intensity.

3. Record the pixel number that is displayed in the status bar or legend (located beneath the graph).
Repeat this step for all of the peaks in your spectrum.

4. Use the spreadsheet program or calculator to create a table like the one shown in the following
figure. In the first column, place the exact or true wavelength of the spectral lines that you used.

In the second column of this worksheet, place the observed pixel number. In the third column,
calculate the pixel number squared, and in the fourth column, calculate the pixel number cubed.
