Operation

Light sensor

1. The light sensor is permanently

attached to the meter by the coiled

cable.

2. Remove the protective cap by

unsnapping it to expose the white

domed light sensor. When the sensor’s protective cap is removed, the white domed

light sensor lens will begin to capture light. Replace the cap when the meter is not in

use.

Turn Power ON or OFF

Press the button to turn power on or off. If the display does not switch on, check that

the 9V battery is installed and is fresh.

Selecting Lux or Foot candle units of measure

Press the LUX button to select lux units or the Fc button to select foot candle units.

Measurement Procedure

1. Remove the protective cap from the sensor so that the white domed light sensor is

exposed to the light. For overhead lighting, the sensor can be placed on a desk or

table top. A tripod mount and a tilt stand are located on the rear of the meter for

convenience.

2. The display will indicate the light level in Fc or Lux.

3. Press the RANGE button to select the range that provides the maximum resolution. If

the ‘OL’ appears the light measurement is out of range. Select another range using the

RANGE button.

4. Press the backlight button to illuminate the LCD display if needed.

MAX/MIN

The Max/Min function allows for recording and display of the maximum and minimum light

levels over time.

1. Press the MAX/MIN button. The MAX display icon will appear and meter will now

display and hold only the highest reading. The display will update only when a higher

reading is measured.

2. Press MAX/MIN button. The MIN display icon will appear and meter will now display

and hold only the lowest reading. The display will update only when a lower reading is

measured

3. Press MAX/MIN again. The MAX MIN display icons will appear flashing and meter will

now display the current reading, but will continue to record the highest and lowest

values.

4. Press MAX/MIN again to cycle through MAX and MIN displays.

5. To exit the MAX MIN mode, press and hold the MAX/MIN button until the MAX and

MIN icons completely disappear.

Data Hold

Press the HOLD button to freeze the displayed reading. The ” MANU HOLD” hold icon will

appear on the display. Press the HOLD button again to return to normal operation. When

the Data Hold function is enabled the analog bar graph will continue to display level

changes.

Peak Hold

The Peak Hold feature allows the meter to captures light pulses that rise or fall down to

10µs.

1. Press and hold the PEAK button until CAL appears in the display.

2. Momentarily press the PEAK button. The ‘PMAX’ icon will appear on the LCD. The

meter will then measure and display any light pulses. The display will hold the results

until a higher pulse appears.

3. Press the PEAK button again to display the “PMIN” values.

4. To exit the Peak Hold mode, press and hold the PEAK button until the ‘PMAX’ or ‘PMIN’

icon disappears.

Relative mode

Measurements can be displayed as a difference between the measured light level and a

stored reference value. To store a reading as a reference, press the REL button when the

desired reference measurement is on the LCD (the REL icon will switch on). All

subsequent displayed readings will be “relative” to the stored reference value. For

example, if the reference value is 100 and the actual light level is 125, the meter will

display 25. To view the reference value, press the REL button again so that the REL icon

begins to flash. The displayed value will be the reference value. To exit the Relative mode,

press and hold the REL button until the REL icon disappears.

RESET

Press the RESET button to clear the memory and exit from REL, HOLD, PEAK and

MAX/MIN. The RESET will also reset the auto power off timer.

Backlight

Press the “ “ button to turn the backlight on. Press again to turn it off.

Maintenance

Cleaning and storage

1. The white plastic sensor dome should be cleaned with a damp cloth when necessary.

Use only a mild soap if needed. Do not use solvents, abrasives, or harsh detergents to

clean the dome.

2. Store the meter in an area with moderate temperature and humidity (refer to the

operating and storage range in the ‘Specifications’ section).

Battery Replacement

When the battery power begins to fail the low battery symbol “ ”will appear on the LCD.

Replace the 9V battery by first removing protective jacket that encases the meter. Remove

the rear (center) battery compartment screw to access the battery compartment. Ensure

that the compartment cover is securely fastened and that the protective jacket is properly
