User-Facing Features
Touchscreen Display
The ColorFlex L2 features a seven-inch high-resolution touchscreen display, which serves as
the primary interface for operating the instrument. The screen provides intuitive access to
the EasyMatch Essentials software, allowing users to view sample data, manage workflows,
and adjust instrument settings.
Sample Port and Light Ring
The ColorFlex L2 supports many of the same port inserts used with the ColorFlex EZ,
providing compatibility and continuity for users transitioning from the previous model to
this advanced version.
Surrounding the Sample Port is a Light Ring, which provides a visual indication of the
instrument's status. The ring displays different colors to communicate operational states,
such as readiness, ongoing measurements, or errors. This feature enhances usability by
giving immediate, at-a-glance feedback about the instrument's current status.
Physical Action button
Located on the right side of the sample port, the round physical action button is marked
with a lightning icon. This button replicates the functionality of the green action button in
the Essentials software. It allows users to perform key operations, such as standardization,
initiating measurements, or advancing to the next step in a workflow.
Side USB Connectors
The ColorFlex L2 has two USB-A connectors on the left side. These ports are typically used for
connecting flash drives or keyboards. A USB hub can be attached to connect multiple devices
simultaneously. Either port can be used to Export Jobs, WorkSpaces, and update software
through a flash drive. .
The instrument is compatible with the L02-1017-434 Wireless Keyboard and Mouse Kit.
Power Input and Rear I/O Features
The instrument is supplied with a 24 VDC (3.75A) power supply. Plug the power supply into the
power input located at the back bottom of the ColorFlex L2.
The Rear I/O board includes the following components:
• Power Input: Plug the power supply into the power input.
• Power Switch: Use the rocker switch to turn the instrument on or off.
• HDMI Port: Connect an HDMI cable to display the interface on an external monitor.
Touch-screen monitors are compatible with Essentials software and require an

with HunterLab Essentials on a PC, and other networked plant systems.
