Basic Operation
1. With the sensor cover in place, press the button to turn the meter on. The meter will perform
a short self-test.
2. Remove the and place the sensor in the
area to be measured.
3. Press the lux / fc button to select the desired units of measure.
4. Read the light level on the display. If the measurement is out of
range, ation will appear.
5. When the meter is turned on, the elapsed timer starts. The elapsed
timer shows days/hours or minutes/seconds. Use the TIME button
to toggle the view between minutes/seconds (M-S) and days/hours (D-H).
Operation Modes
In addition to the normal mode of operation where light level is measured, there are 5 special
modes, listed below. Each mode is explained in the subsequent sections of this manual. The SET
button is used to access the modes. The number on the lower left of the LCD (after the SET button
is pressed) represents the mode currently selected. Use the down arrow key to scroll to the desired
mode.
Programming modes
Mode Name of mode Description
SEt 01 Stray+ Light Cancels out stray light from light under test
SEt 02 Time - Hold Meter measures while timer counts down.
Reading is held on LCD when counter = 0.
SEt 03 rtC Set the day and time for internal clock
SEt 04 Int Lumen-seconds, lux-hour, and fc-hour
measurements
SEt 05 COMP Measurements are compared to high and low
limits.
MODE 1 - Stray Light Inhibit
This feature allows the user to measure light from one source while
automatically factoring out the light from a secondary (stray) unwanted
source.
1. Turn on the desired li
towards this source (the stray light source should be on also).
2. Press the SET key; SEt will appear at the
center of the LCD and on the lower left of the LCD
(see diagram).
3. Press the ENTER key ( ). The measurement at this point consists of the primary AND the
stray light sources (LIGHT + STRAY).
4. Press ENTER to store this value. STRAY will appear on the display
5. Turn off the primary light source.
6. Press the ENTER key again to store only the stray light source.
7. The meter will now compute and display the light level for only the desired (primary) light source.

6. Press the ENTER key when finished.
7. Use the TIME key to toggle between minutes-seconds (m-s) and day-hour (D-H) views.
MODE 4 - Integral Illuminance Mode
Integral Illuminance is a luminous energy measurement based on the rate of flow of flux (expressed
in lumen-seconds). The Model EA33 can also measure any photometric quantity on a time
dependent basis. For example, the illuminance could be integrated over time to yield lux-hours (lx-h)
or foot candle-hours (fc-h).

halt.
5. The maximum indication of integral illuminance is 999999. When
this maximum is exceeded, the integration number (Cycle no. at
lower left of LCD) can be checked. The maximum number of
integration cycles is 99.

MODE 5 - Comparator Mode
In this mode the meter compares its measurements to one HIGH and one LOW limit. When the high
limit is exceeded, the plus sign appears on the LCD. When the measurement falls below the low
limit, the negative sign appears on the LCD.

8. Use the up/down arrow keys to set the high limit value.
9. Press the ENTER key to begin setting the Comparator LOW limit value. The minus symbol will
appear.
10. Use the up/down arrow keys to set the desired LOW limit value.
11. Press ENTER to complete the Comparator setup.
12. Press and hold the cd/COMP key for three seconds to activate the Comparator.
13. Now if a measurement exceeds the high limit, the plus sign will appear. If the low limit is
exceeded, the minus sign will appear. An audible beep will sound when a limit has been
reached.
14. Press the ENTER key to exit the Comparator mode.
99-Point Averaging
Illuminance is the amount of visible light incident upon a specific surface area. Since the EA33
sensor area is small, the Average Mode can be used to measure the illuminance of larger surface
areas; to accomplish this, up to 99 points can be averaged.
1. Press the
2. Press the MEM key to store a reading (up to 99 readings can be averaged). The display at the
lower left will keep a running tally of the readings recorded.
3. Press the READ key to perform the average calculation. The
average value will be displayed and held on the LCD.
4. Pressing the MEM key at this point allows the meter to
continuously average subsequent illuminance readings (the
display will only show an average value).
5. Use the READ button to toggle between this continuous Average
display and the normal measurement display.
6. Press the ENTER key to exit.

Luminous Intensity Feature
Luminous intensity is the measurement of light from a light source at a known distance from the
sensor. The unit of measure is candela (cd).
1. Press the cd/COMP key to begin (for lux measurement)
feet (for Fc measurement) will appear.
2. Use the up/down arrow keys to set the distance from the light
source to the light sensor. The distance range is 0.01 to 9.99
meters or feet.
3. The measurement must be made in a dark room or in a room with
no stray light.
4. The distance between the sensor and light source must be at least
10 times the size of the light source.
5. Press the (for candela)
units icon will appear along with the reading.
6. Press the ENTER key again to exit.
