As the product is a high-precision instrument, please use it cautiously. To ensure the accuracy of measurements, annual calibration is recommended. Please consult the agent or the customer service department for the calibration service.
1.4
Product Notes and Precautions
MK350N Premium Spectrometer is a high-precision instrument. Please
1.
unpack with care. Any vibration or collision may cause instrument damage. If the product doesn’t work normally or needs repair, please don’t attempt any repairs. All repairs must be performed by the authorized customer service agent.
Most LCD screens have a very small and inconsequential defective pixel
2.
rate (usually less than 0.1%). This results in occasional pinpoints of white or other colors but will not affect the accuracy of measurements.
Precautions / Warnings
Please read the following precautions to avoid fire, excessive heat, chemical leakage and explosion :
◆ Do not disassemble or modify the battery.
◆ Do not expose the battery to heat (fire) or water/moisture.
◆When disposing used/old batteries, wrap with insulation tape to shield the battery from
electrical contact with metallic objects, which might ignite a fire or explosion.
◆If the unit is plugged into the power adapter and the battery seems to be overheating, or if
there is smoke or peculiar odors emanating from the unit, unplug immediately to avoid the
possibility of fire.
◆However, do not touch the cables if there is heat emanating from near the cables as melted
or deformed cables could expose wiring and result in burns or electric shock.
◆Do not use cloth or anything to wrap or cover the equipment while charging – this could
cause the unit to overheat, melting the casing or causing fire.
◆If the unit is accidently immersed in water, or if moisture has seeped inside, or metal objects
have dropped into the casing, immediately remove the battery to avoid fire or electric shock.
◆Do not operate or store the battery in high-temperature environments-it will cause battery
leakage and/or shorten the life of the battery .
◆Do not use paint thinner, benzene or other organic solvents to clean the equipment – this
may damage the exterior finish or touch screen, and may even ignite fire.

TM-30 Mode Introduction
TM-30-15 provides equations and direction for calculating Fidelity Index (Rf) and gamut (increase or decrease in chroma) through a Gamut Index (Rg), including the spectral reflectance functions for 99 Color Evaluation Samples (CES).
Rf:Fidelity Index
Rf takes a maximum value of 100. If Rf is 100, it is a match to the reference source (true to the “real color”, similar to CRI Ra 100). If color shifts occur, the arrows get longer and Rf decreases (to a minimum value of zero).
Rg:Gamut Index
Rg=100 means that the test light source doesn’t change the hue or saturation of the CES compared to the reference source.
Rg>100 indicates that the test
light source increases the saturation of the CES producing colors that are more vivid.
Rg<100 indicates that the test
light source decreases the saturation of the CES producing colors that are less saturated.
red line:test source
gray line:reference source
Color Vector Graphic:one of the outputs of TM-30.
This graph can tell us how, on average, various colors are distorted.
1. outward arrows mean more saturated colors
2. inward arrows mean duller colors
3. sideways arrows mean a hue shift
4. no arrow means that the color isn’t distorted

5.1 Product Warranty Terms 5.1 Product Warranty Terms
Warranty Principles
UPRTEK provides the service of repairing or changing equivalent products for the customer in case of the material or functional defect and fault during the product warranty period.
1.Changing new product:
If the consumer finds any functional defect or fault or finds any part missing within 7 days after purchasing the product, it should consult the original seller and report to the vendor immediately. Moreover, it should leave the contact information, so the customer service personnel of the original vendor will check it out and generate the number of changing new product for the customer. In this case, the original vendor provides the service of “changing new product” within 7 days.
The customer should return the product to the original vendor within 30 days after getting the repair number. As for the international customer, it permits the flexibility of logistical time and expands the time for returning the product to the original vendor.
Remarks: It requires complete package when returning the product to the original vendor. There should be no part missing or scratch on the surface unless the part is found missing when the product is delivered. Under this circum­stance, the original vendor reserves the ultimate right to determine whether to change new product.
2. Repair service:
If it exceeds the period for changing new product (seven days), the functional non-compliance or defect found on the product should go through RMA workflow. When any product needs to be returned to the original vendor for repair, it should consult the business service personnel via Email, fax or phone call to apply for repair number before returning the product to the original vendor for repair service.
After the original vendor receives the returned product, the internal engineer of the Company will check it initially and confirms the causes for product defect. If it is within the warranty period and it is the functional fault of the product, it should follow the general repair workflow. However, if the engineer checks it is human damage rather than functional fault, it is inapplicable to the warranty term.
Remarks: To avoid damage during the product transporta­tion, we strongly recommend choosing international express service and protecting the product carefully.
Limited Warranty
The warranty term is inapplicable to the damage caused by unnatural or external factors, such as the following circumstances:
1.When the fault is caused by the natural disaster and improper human operation rather than the product itself;

The sensitivity of human eyes
varies with the light of
different wavelength. It can
get the data such as
illuminance based on the
brightness function. However,
the brightness function is
different for human eyes
under high brightness and
low brightness. Therefore, it
---
defines the ratio of photopic
vision under high brightness
and scotopic vision under low
brightness, which is called S/P
ratio.
The Gamut Area Index is the
ratio between the area of the
eight standard colors (R1~R8)
on CIE1976 coordinate
measured by CRI and the
area measured with the
---
standard illuminant E(x,y =
0.333, 0.333). The higher the
value is, the more saturated
and bright the color is.

The transmittance is defined
as (the radiant flux
transmitted/the radiant flux
received)x100 %, based on
%
which the wavelength
response can be obtained.
It is a rating method proposed
by IES for the performance of
light source. Different from 8
standard colors, it defines 99
standard colors to present the
performance of various
wavelengths. Rf represents the
similarity between the target
light source and the reference
light source under the standard
colors. The value 100 represents
it is identical, while the value 0
represents great difference. Rg
represents the saturation
---
difference between the target
light source and the reference
light source under the standard
colors. The value 100 represents
the saturation is the same, while
the value larger than 100
represents saturation is higher,
and the value smaller than 100
represents saturation is lower.
Moreover, it could identify the
difference more obviously
through the color vector
diagram and the color tolerance
diagram.

correctly.
Check whether the
battery runs out of power.
Check whether the
battery connector is dirty.
Please don’t install the battery
inversely, or push it in violently,
which may destroy the battery
spring.
Please charge the battery for 6
hours for the first use. (Please refer

Why I feel the card is stuck when inserting and unplugging it?
What is the function of dark calibration?
Do I need to perform dark calibration at every startup.
Why my SD card can’t be used on
MK350N Premium?
- 59 - - 60 -
Solution
It is the anti-shedding function designed specially. It prevents SD card shedding in case of collision under external force, which may cause write-in error.
The dark calibration is also known as zero calibration. As the temperature change of the environment affects the measurement results, the user is suggested performing dark calibration before measurement, so as to improve the measurement accuracy. (As for the calibration instruction, please refer to 2.6).
The SD card should be formatted into FAT before being inserted into MK350N Premium. Moreover, the memory of SD card is required to be 1G or higher.
