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

1: Introduction

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:

Installing Jaz

Overview

Your Jaz unit is field-portable and can collect data as a free-standing unit from the battery embedded in
the stack. You also have two options for connecting Jaz to a computer to process the data you have
collected:

 A USB connection directly to a computer running SpectraSuite.
 An Ethernet connection to a computer network.

Note

Your Jaz unit receives power from either connection.

If you have purchased SpectraSuite software, you must install it prior to connecting Jaz Spectrometer to a
computer. The SpectraSuite software installation installs the drivers required for Jaz. If you do not install
SpectraSuite first, the computer will not properly recognize Jaz.

If you have already connected Jaz to a computer running on a Windows platform prior to installing
SpectraSuite, consult Jaz Connected to Computer Prior to SpectraSuite Installation
correcting a corrupt Jaz installation.

Caution

Connect all cables before powering-on your Jaz unit. Install Jaz in the following
order:

1. Connect the external power supply (if used).

2. Open SpectraSuite.

3. Connect the USB cable between Jaz and your computer (if used).

4. Press F5 to display Jaz in SpectraSuite.
