Operation

PowerON‐OFF 

MomentarilypressthePowerbuttontopowerthemeter.TopowerthemeterOFF,

momentarilypressthePowerbuttonagain.

TakingMeasurements

1. SwitchthemeterON

2. Removethesensor’sprotectivecovertoexposethelightsensordome.Thedisplayshould

switchON,ifnotcheckthatfreshbatteriesareinstalled.

3. Themetermeasurestheintensityofthelight(illuminance)thatstrikesthesensordomein

footcandlesandluxunits(1fc=10.76lux)displayingthemeasuredvalueontheLCD.

4. UsetheLUX/FC/CDbuttontoselectLuxorFootcandleunits(CD,luminousintensity,is

explainedinthededicatedsection‘LuminousIntensity’).When‘OL’isdisplayed,the

measurementexceedsthemeter’srangecapability.

5. Positionthemeterandlightsourcesothatthelightstrikesthesensordomeperpendicularly.

Althoughthemetercompensatesforanincidenceangle,optimumperformanceisachieved

withasmallerincidenceangle.

6. Themeter’sLCDcanshowavalueupto3999onthelargedigitsandwhenmoredigitsare

neededtorepresentthereadingtwoadditional(smaller)digitsappeartotherightofthe

largerdigits,e.g.399900.

LUX/FC/CDUnits

MomentarypressesoftheLUX/FC/CDbuttontogglesLuxandFC(foot‐candles)units.Pressand

holdthebuttontoentertheCD(luminousintensity)mode.Referto‘LuminousIntensity’section

forfurtherinformation.

AutoPowerOFF

Tosavebatterylifethemeterpowersdownautomaticallyafterapproximately5minutesof

inactivity(nobuttonpresses).

Enable/DisableAutoPowerOff

WiththemeterON,pressandholdthePowerbuttonuntiltheAPOclocksymbolswitches

OFF(theAutoPowerOFFutilityisnowdisabledandtheusermustmanuallyswitchthemeter

off).Tore‐enabletheAutoPowerOFFutility,repeatthisprocess.TheClocksymbolwillswitch

ONwhentheAutoPowerOFFutilityisre‐enabled.

ZeroCalibration

1. Ensurethattheprotectivecoverisattachedtothelightsensor.

2. PowerthemeterandtheLCDshoulddisplay‘0’.

3. Momenarilypressthe“ZERO”buttonandtheADJ(adjusting)iconwillswitchONindicating

thatthezeroadjustment(calibration)isworking.Whenthecalibrationisfinished,theADJ

iconwillswitchOFFandthemeterwillreturntothenormaloperatingmode.

4. IftheprotectivecapisnotcoveringthesensorwhentheZEROcalibrationisstartedtheLCD

displaywillread“CAP”.Inthiscase,pleasecoverthesensorwiththecapandrestartthis

procedure.

1. MomentarilypresstheMAX/AVG/MINbuttonandthemeterwillbegintotrackthe

maximum/average/minimummeasurements;the“MIN”iconwilldisplayontheLCD

indicatingthatthemeterisnowdisplayingtheminimumreading.Thereadingwillnot

changeuntilalowerreadingisregistered.

2. Pressthebuttonagaintoswitchfrom“MIN”to“MAX”wherethemeterwillshowthe

maximummeasurementvalue.The“MAX”iconwillbedisplayedontheLCD.

3. Pressthebuttonagaintochangethemodefrom“MAX”to“AVG”,wherethemeterwill

MeasurementConsiderationsandUserTips

Formaximumaccuracyallowthelightbeingmeasuredtofalldirectlyonthesensoras

perpendicularaspossiblewithaminimalangleofincidence.



Whenthemeterisnotinuse,pleasekeeptheprotectivecapinplace,coveringthelight

sensor.Thiswillprolongthelifeofthesensor.

Whenthemeteristobestoredforlongperiods,pleaseremovethebatteryandstoreit

separately.Batteriescanleakandcausedamagetothemeter’scomponents.

Avoidareasofhightemperatureandhumiditywhenusingthisinstrument.



BatteryReplacementand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relativehumidity.

BatteryReplacement

Whenthebatterypowerdecreasestoacriticallevel,thebatterysymbolwillappearasemptyon

theLCD.Replacethe9Vbatterylocatedintherearbatterycompartment.Thebattery

compartmentslideseasilydownwardforremoval(inthedirectionoftheprintedarrowonthe

rearofthemeter).Ensurethatthecompartmentcoverissecurelyfastenedbeforeusingthe

meter.

Neverdisposeofusedbatteriesorrechargeablebatteriesinhouseholdwaste.

Asconsumers,usersarelegallyrequiredtotakeusedbatteriestoappropriate

collectionsites,theretailstorewherethebatterieswerepurchased,orwherever

batteriesaresold.

Disposal:Donotdisposeofthisinstrumentinhouseholdwaste.Theuserisobligatedtotake

end‐of‐lifedevicestoadesignatedcollectionpointforthedisposalofelectricalandelectronic

equipment.



BatterySafetyReminders

oPleasedisposeofbatteriesresponsibly;observelocal,state,nationalregulations.

oNeverdisposeofbatteriesinafire;batteriesmayexplodeorleak.
