Measurement Of Control Originals; Taking Emissive Measurements; Calibration For Emissive Measurements - GMB Spectrolino Operation Manual

3.4.1.2 Measurement of control originals

The Spectrolino is equipped with the measuring foot (22) for manual measurement.
Insert the foot's folding tab (24) into the slot (16) of the instrument and ensure that the
foot is in the locked position.
Position the instrument on the measurement field such that
the colour completely fills the measuring aperture (21).
Lowering the instrument onto the foot retracts the aperture so
that there is no interference with the measurement. The mea-
surement is actuated by brief pressure on the measurement
key (10). A brief single tone confirms that the measurement
has taken place.
- Ensure that the Spectrolino is on the same plane as the sample under
measurement. For very thick samples, the measuring device must be
brought to the same height by placing it on a suitable base. An oblique
position of the measuring device may cause errors in measurement.

Taking emissive measurements

3.4.2.1 Calibration for emissive measurement
Before using the Spectrolino to perform an emissive measurement, it is necessary to
perform a calibration for emissive measurement.
- Emissive measurements may only be performed using the NO filter.
If necessary, before performing the calibration, replace the filter
(for instructions, see chap. 3.4.4 Filter Substitution).
