Making Measurements
12.1.
Alignment of the Sensor
Before making any measurements, it is important to place the sensor at an
appropriate distance. The BaseSpion is a far field goniometer system, which means
that the distance between the sensor and the lamp should be equal to or larger than
eight times the lamp length/diameter.

Making a Measurement
1 A measurement is simply started by clicking on
the play icon on the menu bar
2 Then the integration time is set automatically
3 The ambient light level is automatically
measured by turning off the light source
4 The power is then measured and stored
5 The light source is then rotated at 180 degrees
to prepare for measurement
