Calibration Notes

Dirt or dust in the optics area will cause an
inaccurate calibration reading. Therefore, always
use the protective cap, if no readings are taken.

The standards and light trap should be cleaned
periodically. For cleaning procedure see section
"Cleaning and Maintenance“. Please make sure
that the standards are not scratched.

Do not move the instrument while taking a
calibration measurement. If motion is detected,
an error message will be displayed and
calibration is aborted.

When moving from cold to warm environment,
there is a danger of condensation. For this
reason, you should wait for an appropriate
amount of time to allow the optical components
to adjust before calibrating and using the unit.
