Measurement Methods
1.3 Notices Prior to Measurement
Warning
1: Do not use the light meter in environments full of dusts or having gas substances and
flammable steam substances!
2: Do not use the light meter for measurement in the place with high temperature and high
humidity.
3: Do not use the light meter in environments with intense infrared or ultraviolet rays!
Tips
1: The opto-sensor of this meter is designed by simulating the sensitive curve of light obtained
through human eyes. The spectral coverage is between 320mm and 730mm. When it is used for measurement within the infrared range, there will be a large data deviation.
2: The opto-sensor is calibrated by common electric incandescent lamp required by CIE under
the color temperature of 2854°K; the provided reading number may be different for the
spectrum of other lamps. 3: The reference level of light source test is at the top of the spherical surface illuminated. 4: The optical detector should be exposed to light for 2 minutes before measurement. 5: Shadows and other factors that might affect the optical detector should be avoided.

1.4 Measurement Values
1.4.1 Concepts of illuminance scales
One lux (lumen) indicates the illuminance on a surface of one square meter, all points of which are one meter from a uniform source of one candela. One foot-candle (Fc) indicates the illuminance on a surface of one square foot, all points of which are one foot from a uniform source of one candela.
1.4.2 Unit conversion for illuminance scales
1 Fc = 10.764 lux 1 lux = 0.09290 Fc
1.4.3 Conversion formula for illuminance and light intensity
E = I / r
Wherein E --- illumination value (Unit: Lux)
I --- Light intensity of the light sourceUnit: cd);
r --- Distance from the luminous surface of light source to the optical detector (Unit: m).
During measurement, the minimum distance between the luminous surface of light source and the
opto-sensor should be more than 15 times greater than maximum size of the luminous surface (or opto-sensor).

1.5 Typical practice cases
In the following practice cases, the user stands under a light source.
Remove the protection cover of the 59151 multi-functional light meter and place it at right angle to the light source, as shown in figure 2-1.
Press and hold the 59151 power key for a short time to power on the light meter. The LCD screen will illuminateabout 5 secondswith the buzzer beeping twice and “AUTO” will appear on the middle of LCD display. This indicates that the auto measurement mode is ON.
Press and hold the manual range switching key of the 59151 for a short time, “MANU” will appear on the top left position of the LCD display, indicating that the manual range switching mode has been activated. In this mode, each time press and hold the key for a short time, the meter will switch to
20.00Lux—>200.0Lux—>2000Lux—>20000Lux—>200000Lux (or 20.00Fc—>200.0 Fc—>2000 Fc—>20000 Fc) in sequence; pressing the key for one second will result in the inscription “MANU” disappearing from top left position of LCD display, replaced by “AUTO” appearing in the middle, to indicate that the meter has switched the manual range switching mode to the auto range switchover.
Page 8
Cat# 59151 Multi Function LED Light Meter
Press and hold the REL/PEAK key of the 59151 for a short time, “REL” will appear on the top left position of the LCD interface, indicating the activation of the relative value measurement mode. Press and hold the key for a short time again, the device will exit the relative value measurement mode and return to the original measurement mode, and “REL” on the top left position of the LCD interface will disappear; pressing the key for one second will lead to the peak measurement mode, “PEAK” and “MANU” will appear on top right position of LCD display; press and hold the key for one second once again, “PEAK” will disappear from the top right position of the LCD interface, and “AUTO” will appear in the middle of LCD, and the mode will return to auto measurement mode.
Press and hold max/min value inquiry key for a short time, “MAX” will appear on top position of LCD interface, switching the device to the max/min value inquiry mode; in this mode, each short press of the key causes the mode to change from MAX to MIN or from MIN to MAX; press and hold the “MAX/MIN” key for one second, “MAX/MIN” on top position of the LCD interface will disappear, and the mode will exit.
Press and hold the data hold/zero calibration key of the 59151 for a short time to enter the data hold mode, which will be indicated by the apparition of “HOLD” on the top left position of the LCD interface; press and hold the key for a short time once again, “HOLD” will disappear from the top left position of the LCD interface, and the device will exit the data hold mode. In any mode with sensor covered, press and hold data hold/zero calibration key for one second, “ADJ” will appear on the LCD interface, and the device will enter the zero calibration mode: several seconds later “ADJ” will disappear from the LCD interface, and the device will exit the data hold mode and return to auto measurement mode.

treatment.
4.4 Calibration Interval
In order to ensure the accuracy of the meter, periodic calibration should be performed by our debugging personnel. It is recommended to make calibration every year. If the meter is in frequent use or used in poor environments, the calibration interval should be adjusted accordingly. If the meter is less used, the calibration interval may be prolonged up to three years.
