Example
If you need to measure a light source with a diameter of 270 mm, you need to have
Rail I and Rail II mounted and the sensor should be slid to position 7 (sensor distance
2500 mm)
Room width: Recommended 100 cm or more (Minimum 60 cm depending on lamp
size)
10.
Goniom
eter ‘Dark
Z
one’
Normally when doing light measurements, a completely dark room is needed. But
with the BaseSpion it is not a necessity for the whole room to be dark as the sensor
uses a special directional sensor. This means having only the goniometer in a dark
zone will be sufficient, as shown below.
Minimum 1 m recommended
