Question: Can the “Visual Assist” meter measure light intensity?
Answer:
The “Visual Assist” meter DOES NOT MEASURE LIGHT INTENSITY. It assists in locating the
highest value reading of that particular lamp. If a light intensity meter is an instrument your facility
would like to procure, SYMTECH offers the “AIM 200”, a hand held, self-contained precision
instrument specifically designed for measuring automotive light intensities.
Question: Why does the “Visual Assist” meter have a higher reading on one side of the car than the other?
Answer:
Most vehicles will have lamps of varying intensity and patterns. Just use the meter and adjust to the
highest value reading for that particular lamp.
Question: Can I use the “Visual Assist” meter to help line up the optical head with the headlamp?
Answer:
YES. While observing the meter, roll the LCA 2
EZ
back and forth horizontally and raise and
lower the optical head vertically until you achieve the highest metered reading.
Question: How do I change the batteries in the “Visual Assist” meter?
Answer:
The meter does not have batteries, power is provided by the light of the headlamp.
Question: Is there a calibration procedure for the “Visual Assist” meter?
Answer:
NO calibration of meter is required.
