LIGHT MEASUREMENT
1) Set the function switch to the desired “Lux” or “x10 Lux” range.
2) Remove the meter and face the photo detector to the light source in a
horizontal position.
3) Read the illuminance nominal from the LCD display.
4) Over-range: If the instrument displays “1” in the M.S.D. the input
signal is too strong, and a higher range should be selected.
5) When the measurement is completed, turn the function switch to the
OFF position and remove it from the light source.
6) Spectral sensitivity characteristic: To the detector, the applied photo
diode with lters makes the spectral sensitivity characteristic almost
meet C.I.E (International Commission on Illumination) photopia curve
V () as the following chart describes.
