MKS Instruments has introduced the New Ophir Juno+ USB interface at Laser World of Photonics 2019 taking place in Munich from June 24-27.  A smart, compact USB module, the Juno+ turns a PC or laptop into a full laser power/energy meter. It connects any of the 100+ Ophir smart laser sensors – thermal, pyroelectric, and photodiode – to a PC USB port, including the BeamTrack family of thermal sensors that combines multiple functions into one device: laser power, energy, beam position, and beam size.

The Juno+ operates with StarLab software to log power and energy, as well as calculate and display averages, statistics, and histograms.

It is a plug and play module that can be used with a wide variety of laser measurement sensors. Several sensors can be connected to a PC using one Juno module for each sensor; if needed, a USB hub can be used to connect up to eight (8) sensors to one PC. Unlike some competitive offerings, Juno+ uses a standard USB cable and can be unplugged from one sensor and used on another. No power source is required. A scalable analog output is provided for synchronizing power readings with an outside controller. System integrator tools, LabVIEW VIs and COM Object Interface, are included.

According to Reuven Silverman, General Manager for the Ophir business unit, Juno+ is a true USB device that works with all Ophir sensors, including a scalable analog ouput for connection with an outside controller. Unlike sensors with the USB unit built into the cable, Juno+ can be attached and unattached at will, obviating the need to buy a separate USB interface for each sensor. And with Juno+, one can use the same senor with a direct PC connection or with a standard meter.
