7. Record the Intercept, as well as the First, Second, and Third Coefficients. Additionally, look at
the value for R squared. It should be very close to 1. If not, you have most likely assigned one of
your wavelengths incorrectly.
Keep these values at hand.
Saving the New Calibration Coefficients: USB
Mode
Ocean Optics programs wavelength calibration coefficients unique to each Jaz spectrometer module onto
an EEPROM memory chip in Jaz.
You can overwrite old calibration coefficients on the EEPROM if you are using Jaz via the USB port.
►
Procedure
To save wavelength calibration coefficients using the USB mode, perform the following steps:
1. Ensure that Jaz is connected to the computer and that you have closed all other applications.
2. Point your browser to
scroll down to Microcode. Select USB EEPROM Programmer.
3. Save the setup file to your computer.
4. Run the Setup.exe file to install the software. The Welcome screen appears.
5. Click the Next button. The Destination Location screen appears.
6. Accept the default installation location, or click the Browse button to specify a directory. Then,
click the Next button. The Program Manager Group screen appears.
7. Click the Next button. The Start Installation screen appears.
8. Click the Next button to begin the installation. Once the installation finishes, the Installation
Complete screen appears.
9. Click the Finish button and reboot the computer when prompted.
10. Navigate to the USB EEPROM Programmer from the Start menu and run the software.
11. Click on the desired Jaz device displayed in the left pane of the USB Programmer screen.
12. Double-click on each of the calibration coefficients displayed in the right pane of the USB
Programmer screen and enter the new values acquired in Steps 5 and 6 of the
Wavelength of the Spectrometer
section in this appendix.
13. Repeat Step 12 for all of the new values.
14. Click on the Save All Values button to save the information, and then Exit the USB Programmer
software.
The new wavelength calibration coefficients are now loaded onto the EEPROM memory chip on the Jaz
spectrometer module
