Model LM631
Digital Light Meter
This instrument is a portable, easy-touse, 31⁄2-digit, compact sized digital
light meter designed for simple one-hand
operation reading in lux or fc units.
Pressing the PEAK button for more than
2 seconds turns the backlight on and off.
There is also an auxiliary output at the
microphone jack (2.5 mm) connector
that is active as long as the light meter
is turned on.

The CIE photopic curve is an international standard for the color response of the average human eye.
CIE standard illuminant as a is defined as a gas-filled tungsten-filament lamp operating at a correlated
color temperature.
