1 INTRODUCTION

Important information: Read the manual carefully before using the device.
Inappropriate utilization may cause damages to the device, to the DUT (device under test)
and/or other components of your setup.
Keep these instructions in a safe place and pass them to any future user.

1.1 Conformity

We, Image Engineering GmbH & Co. KG, hereby declare, that the CAL1 corresponds to the
essential requirements of the following EC directive in its current version:
Electromagnetic Compatibility - 2014/30/EU
•
RoHS 2 - 2011/65/EU
•
Low Voltage - 2014/35/EU
•

1.2 Intended use

The integrating sphere is designed as a calibration light source, based on iQ-LED technology. It
includes a micro spectrometer and is controlled with the iQ-LED control software or via dip
switches when not connected to a PC.
Only suitable for indoor use.
•
Place your system in a dry and constant tempered environment without any interfering
•
light.
The optimal ambient temperature range is 22 to 26 degrees Celsius. The maximum
•
ambient temperature range is 18 to 28 degree Celsius.
The optimal system temperature range, displayed in the software user interface, is
•
between 35 and 50 degrees Celsius. The system has internal temperature
management, if there is any error regarding the internal temperature, you will get a
warning message and the system will automatically shut off to avoid any damage.
1.2.1

Departing from described setup

The following steps must be performed in the correct chronology to allow a frictionless
commissioning. Departing from the chronology may lead to an incorrect working device.
1. Install the iQ-LED software
2. Connect CAL1 to power and via USB to the PC
3. Switch CAL1 on; the system drivers will now be installed
4. After drivers are installed completely, start the software
1.2.2

USB connection

Only appropriate USB connection allows error-free operation of CAL1. Use delivered USB
cables. If you need to extend the USB connection to longer distances, please check if powered
hubs/repeaters are necessary.
