Inspection and tile care
It is necessary to inspect the condition of the calibration tile and
instrument optics before each calibration.
Inspecting and cleaning the instrument optics
Any dust or debris on the optic should be blown from the lenses
using dry clean air- the optics must not be touched without
wearing suitable cotton gloves.
If there are any permanent marks or scratches on the lenses, the
instrument is no longer suitable for measuring gloss and should
be returned to an authorised Rhopoint service center.
Inspecting and cleaning the calibration tile
The calibration tile must be perfectly clean from smears and
scratches before attempting calibration. Fingerprints and dust
can be removed with the supplied optic cleaning cloth.
Scratched or damaged tiles
Scratched or damaged tiles are not suitable for gloss calibration.
The instrument and tile must be returned to an approved
Rhopoint service center for tile replacement and re-calibration.
