Figure 32 Light Source

Click "Observer Angle" to switch 10 degree or 2 degree. 10 degree is CIE1964 standard, while 2 degree is
CIE1931 standard.

Click "Illuminant",as shown in Figure 33, users could select D65, A, C, D50, D55, D75, F1, F2(CWF), F3, F4, F5,
F6, F7(DLF), F8, F9, F10(TPL5), F11(TL84), F12(TL83/U30).

Click "UV illuminant" to select the UV light source switch. It is recommended to turn on the UV light source when
measuring fluorescent sample, and turn off when measuring general sample.
