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.

MODE 2 Elapsed Timer with Hold

In this mode, measurements are made while the countdown timer is running. When the timer

reaches zero, the last measurement is held on the display (see diagram).

1. Press the SET key; SEt 01 will display.

2. Press the down arrow key to change to the SEt 02 parameter.

3. Press the ENTER key to call up the timer.

4. Use the up/down arrow keys to set the desired seconds.

5. Press the ENTER key to program the number of minutes.

counts down, the last reading will be held on the display.

8. Press the ENTER key to exit this mode.

MODE 3 - Real Time Clock Setting

2. Press the d

right of the LCD.

5. Repeat the previous two steps for the minutes , hours , and day settings.

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).

1. Press th SEt 0

3. Press the ENTER key to start the Integral Illuminance

measurement. The meter will set the first measurement as a

reference. - - appear and the timer

will start (the cycle number appears on the lower left of the LCD).

4. If measurements exceed the reference value, the display will

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.

6. Press the ENTER key to exit this mode of operation.

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.

parameter.

3. Press the ENTER key to enter the Comparator setting mode.

4. Press the down arrow key to select the desired unit of measure

(Lux or Fc).

5. Press ENTER to begin setting the measurement range.

6. Use the down arrow to select the desired range.

appear.

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.
