Jaz is like nothing you’ve ever seen before -- a community of stackable, modular and autonomous components that combine to create a family of smart sensing instruments.

Jaz is unfettered by the limits of traditional optical sensing instrumentation. Its unique features and expandable platform makes it uniquely suited for field applications, remote sensing, process flow and quality assurance.

NEW! Jaz is now available with an LED module that allows you to switch out LED bulbs much more easily. Now, instead of having to replace the entire module, all that’s necessary is to replace the LED assembly – a small fixture with just three screws to manage. We offer modules and bulbs for white LEDs and for 450 nm, 590 nm and 640 nm wavelength LEDs. Consult an Applications Scientist for details.

• Rechargeable Lithium-Ion battery
• Up to 8 spectrometer modules
• Powerful microprocessor and onboard display eliminate the need for a PC
• Stackable, autonomous instrument modules allow you to customize the system to your changing application needs
• Ethernet connectivity plus an SD card for data storage make remote operation a snap!

Jaz Spectrometer Module

• Replaceable slits take spectrometer design to a new level
• Though the crossed Czerny-Turner optical bench design may be familiar, the rest of the bench is anything but conventional. For maximum flexibility, external slits are designed to be easily switched out by qualified users.

Jaz OLED Display Module

• Powerful onboard microprocessors eliminate the need for a PC while the OLED display offers clear, vivid viewing.
• The Jaz OLED module is the user interface. Its powerful microprocessor is the “director” harmonizing the interaction among the modules. The Jaz OLED module handles data processing and logging, distributed computing and user interface functions in the display.

Jaz EB Ethernet and Memory Module

• Ethernet supplies system power, makes remote access possible and provides memory and other functions.
• Our 100 Mb/S Ethernet connection is a “single-cable solution” that powers the system and enables remote access by any computer on the network. Communication can take place among modules that are plugged in anywhere on the World Wide Web. The module also includes an SD card slot for data storage.

Jaz MB Battery and External Memory Module

• Rechargeable battery and data storage functions take the hassle of external power supplies and PC handling out of field work.
• Lithium-Ion battery is rechargeable from the main board via Ethernet, USB or external power supply and allows autonomous data collection with power-conserving sleep mode for long-term measurements. This module also has two SD card slots for memory and other functions.

Jaz Light Source Modules

• UV-Vis Light Source module
• VIS-NIR Light Source module

The Round Up

• System power consumption is a modest ~2.5 W
• Use Ethernet to transfer data to PC
• Jaz is RoHS compliant
• Jaz uses IP communications protocol; proprietary interface allows
  communications with stack and/or the backplane.
