    OPERATION INSTRUCTION Main Function Power On/Off Press and hold the Power button for 2 seconds to turn the meter on and all of symbols will appear for 2 seconds on the LCD. After power-on, the meter will measure and show the readings on the LCD continuously.
  • Page 10 Data Hold While measuring, press the HOLD button once to freeze the display. HOLD will appear on the LCD. Press HOLD button again to resume measuring.
  • Page 11 Measuring Modes Press MODE and buttons simultaneously to switch between color measurement and color difference. Each has 3 modes: • Color Measurement: 1. Ev, x, y (Illuminance, Color coordinate) 2. Ev, u’, v’ (Illuminance, Color coordinate, CIE1960) 3. Ev, CT, uv (Illuminance, Color temperature) Press the MODE button to select your color management mode.

  • Page 15 SET Function Color Difference: This function allows you to set certain reference values (Ev , u’ , v’ , CT (522)) to compare with the target color. Set the Reference Value You can select one of these color difference modes to set: u’, v’...
  • Page 16 Set the reference values in either of two methods: 5-2-1. Use the measured values and adjust it manually as the reference values. 5-2-2. Use previous values stored in memory and adjust manually as the reference values. The difference between method 5-2-1 and 5-2-2 is whether the Data Hold was enabled before entering the set mode.
  • Page 17 Using the Measured Values Select the (Ev, x, y) mode first and measure a light source. 1. Press the HOLD button to hold these values that you want to use as your reference values. 2. Press the button once to toggle the color difference mode.
  • Page 18 c. Select the (Ev, CT, uv) mode and repeat step 1~7 to set the CT reference values. (522) → → CT → → Color difference mode Please note that the Ev reference value in the three modes (Ev, x, y ,Ev, u’, v’ and Ev, CT, uv) remains the same.

  • Page 21 c. Using the measured values to set the reference values of ( u’v’) mode.(522)
  • Page 22 Using the previous values stored in memory a. Select the color different ( Ev, x, y) mode directly. 1. Press the button and hold for 3 seconds to toggle reference values mode wihout Data Hold. 2. The SET symbol will appear and the Ev symbol will flash on the LCD.

  • Page 25 c. Using the previous values to set the reference values of ( u’v’) mode.(522) Zero the Reference Values of Color Difference Close the sensor cover and the (Ev, x, y ,Ev, u’, v’ or EV, CT) measured values will show zero. Then repeat the section 5-2-1: using the measured values to zero the reference value.
  • Page 26: Maintenance
