Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems - IEC 62471:2009 Intended use The LG3 is a high-intensity illuminator based on LED technology for transparent charts. It is capable of flicker generation with variable frequency and variable duty cycle. The external controller unit and the LG3 Software can control the device.
1.3.2 Eye safety The LEDs used in the LG3 can be classified as belonging to the Exempt Group or Risk Group 1, according to IEC 62471:2009. 2 GETTING STARTED Scope of Delivery • LG3 control unit • LG3 illumination unit •...
Connect the illumination unit (1) to the control unit (2): • Plug the cable (H) into the socket (I) • All “open” marks must face to the front side of the device • Turn the lock ring clockwise for a secure connection Image Engineering Seite 5 von 14...
The power switch (F) is located on the upper side of the control unit. 3.3.1 Calibration The LG3 has a stabilized intensity output, and the system needs to be calibrated to use the output feedback in cd/m² or lux. The LG3 provides two calibration modes.
Continuous illumination Use continuous illumination when illuminating test charts. The continuous illumination is preset as a default on the LG3 start-up. Read chapter 3.5 on how to enter and exit the flicker mode. 3.4.1 Power modes Three power modes are available •...

Light emitted by external light sources or reflected by objects in front of the LG3 can enter the illumination unit and affect stabilization. Place the illumination unit in a dark room and avoid reflective and moving objects in this room.
The LG3 simulates different light sources with its capability to vary the duty cycle and frequency of the illumination. The adjustable duty cycle settings of the 32 kHz frequency can change the illumination, and the flicker frequency is modulated on the 32 kHz frequency.

Store and transport the LG3 only in the delivered hard case. Disposal instructions The LG3 must be disposed of properly after the service life is over. Electrical and electromechanical components are included in LG3. Observe your national regulations and ensure that third parties cannot use LG3 after disposing of it.
