near infrared (NIR) spectral
range which means better
sensitivity and specicity in
material sensing applications.
The package includes:
• NIRONE Scanner
• USB-C cable
• White reference target
Software:
• NIRONE Scanner Mobile App
• NIRONE Scanner Web App
Important!
The intended use of NIRONE
Scanner is to measure spectra

Measuring
Measuring samples with your NIRONE Scanner is easy and
consists of few steps that must be followed carefully for accurate
results.
Calibrating
Your NIRONE Scanner must rst be calibrated before any
measurements can be performed. This should be done every
time you start new measurements.
Important!
Make sure that the device measurement window is totally
clean (an alcohol wipe works great, just let it dry before you
start measuring).
Be VERY careful with the White reference target. DO NOT
touch the white part of the White reference target or let it get
contamined or spill any liquids on it. If you do, discontinue use
and contact your administrator.
1. Place the White reference target WHITE part DOWN in the
center of the device window.
2. In the NIRONE Scanner mobile app, click “Calibrate” then
“Calibrate Now”. In a few seconds the device will calibrate and
you’re ready to go!
To clean, simply wipe the white surface of the White reference
target gently against a clean and soft fabric until the surface
appears dust-free.

Measuring a Sample
Important!
It is important that the sample covers the measurement
window. The sample may not be evenly mixed and
measurement from different points may give different results.
sample
1. Place the sample on the measurement area.
2. In the NIRONE Scanner mobile app, click “Measure” then
“Measure Now”.
3. Save the results.
Getting the Results
A couple seconds after pressing “Measure Now”, the NIRONE
Scanner app will display the results. All saved measurements
will be available in the NIRONE Scanner app’s “History” page.

• Do not drop, knock, or shake the device. Rough handling can
break it.
• Only use a soft, clean, dry cloth to clean the surface of the
device.
• Keep the device away from magnets or magnetic elds.
Important!
If the White reference target becomes dirty or damaged,
reference measurements are corrupted and the device
measurement results in reectance/absorption are unreliable.
Cleaning the Device
Occasionally the device window needs cleaning. Use
compressed air to blow out the dirt from the window. The
compressed air must be clean and bottled, otherwise oil or
water may end up on the window.
!
Only use oil and moisture-free
compressed air in a spray can
for the window.
Proceed as follows:
1. Tip a small amount of
isopropanol alcohol on a
non-linting cloth.
2. Wipe the window to remove
the dirt.
Warning!
Do not use excessive air pressure to clean up the window.
