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
Installs in Jaz stack and can be mounted to DIN rail or a wall (with special accessories) or
anywhere with universal ¼-20 threaded mount
