Clicking 

‘Calibration’

 will display the factory calibrated multiplier 

and offset values. These values are saved in firmware and can be 
recovered by clicking the ‘Recover Original’ button. Deriving a new 
calibration multiplier and offset is accomplished by clicking the 
‘Recalibrate’ button. This is applicable if users want to calibrate the 
sensor to their own specific light source. Note that a reference 
value of the light source is required to complete a recalibration. 

 

After clicking the ‘Recalibate’ button the user will be prompted to 
cover the sensor. Place a dark cap over the sensor and wait for the 
real-time shortwave readiation reading to settle at zero. Click OK. 

 

Click the ‘

Settings

’ icon to display the software options. Note 

‘Light Source’

 is not a setting for the SP-422.
