Using the MAVOLUX

4.1 Switching on – Making Measurement
Press the on/off key and the MAVOLUX is in the measuring mode and immediately is measuring at
the rate of 2 times per second. The instrument is in the function „AUTO", i.e. the MAVOLUX will select
the best suited measuring range for the existing light level. By pressing one of the range keys, one of
the measuring ranges can be locked. Browsing up or down through additional measuring ranges is
accomplished by briefly pressing one of the range keys. If both keys are pressed and held
simultaneously, the instrument is returned to „AUTO RANGING".
4.2 Selecting the desired measurement unit lx or fc – cd/m² or fL
Use the key lx/fc to select the desired unit for the read-out – lux or footcandle. With the additional
Luminance Attachment (please refer to 6.2 – Optional accessories), this key also selects the
measurement unit for luminance cd/m² or fL.
4.3 Overload Display
When exceeding one of the measuring ranges „OL" (Overload) appears in the display.
