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.
