The digital illuminance meter is a precision instrument used tomeasure illuminance (Lux, footcandle) in the field.
It is meet CIE photopic spectral response. It is fully cosinecorrected for the angular incidence of light.The illuminance meter is compact, tough and easy to handle
owing to its construction.The light sensitive component used in the meter is a very
stable, long-life silicon photo diode and spectral response filter.
Main features of the LXP-1 device are the following:
Light-measuring levels ranging from 0,1Lux0,1kLux(0,01FC0,01kFC).
High accuracy and rapid response.
Data-hold function for holding measuring values.
Unit and sign display for easy reading.
Automatic zeroing.
Meter corrected for spectral relative efficiency.
Correction factor need not be manually calculated for non-standard light sources.
Peak-hold function for tracing the peak signal of light pulse withleast duration 10s and keep it.
Capable of selecting measuring mode in Lux or FC scalealternatively.
Auto power off (15minutes) or disable AUTO power off.
Maximum and minimum measurements.
Relative reading. Easy to read large backlit display
USB output connect with PC.
4 Level ranking.
99 values in memory that could be read on the meter and PC.
16000 values records datalogger.

Selecting the Lux or FC scale: Set the range selection switch to
desired Lux or FC range. Remove the photo detector cap and face it light source in a
horizontal position.
Press the REC/SETUP key and RANGE/APO key, Enable theAUTO power off or Disable this function.
Read the illuminance nominal from the LCD display.
Over range: If the instrument only displays OL, the input signalis too strong, and a higher range should be selected. The rangewill show on the down of the LCD, LUX: 400 -> 4K -> 40k ->400k; FC: 40 -> 400-> 4k -> 40k.
When the measurement is completed, replace the photodetector cap and turn the meter off.

If the connection is not in order, the message OFFLINE orNO CONNECTION appears on the screen.
7 Battery check-up & replacement
Attention:When making measurements with a battery's mnemonic on,one must take into account additional indefinitemeasurement uncertainty or unstable working of the meter.
As the battery power is not sufficient, LCD will display lowbattery, and replacement of one new battery is required.
After turning off the meter, open the battery cover.
Disconnect the battery from the instrument and replace it with astandard 9V battery and go for the cover.
8 Maintenance
The white plastic disc on the top of the detector should be
cleaned with a damp cloth when necessary.

Do not store the instrument where temperature or humidity isexcessively high.
The reference level, as marker on the face plate, is the tip of thephoto detector globe.
The calibration interval for the photo detector will vary accordingto operational conditions, but generally the sensitivity decreasesin direct proportion to the product of luminous intensity by theoperational time. In order to maintain the basic accuracy of theinstrument, periodic calibration is recommended.
9 Storage
In the case of storage of the device, the followingrecommendations must be observed:
Make sure the meter and its accessories are dry.
In the case the meter is to be stored for a prolonged period oftime, the batteries must be removed from the device.
10 Dismantling and utilization
Worn-out electric and electronic equipment should be gatheredselectively, i.e. it must not be placed with waste of another kind.
Worn-out electronic equipment should be sent to a collectionpoint in accordance with the law of worn-out electric and electronicequipment.
Before the equipment is sent to a collection point, do notdismantle any elements.
Observe the local regulations concerning disposal of packages,
worn-out batteries and accumulators.
