Introduction

Thank you for selecting the Extech EasyView Digital Light Meter which measures light level

(luminance). This device measures up to 40,000 Fc and 400,000 Lux. This device is shipped fully

tested and calibrated and, with proper use, will provide years of reliable service.

EA30-EU-EN v3.3 08/13

Operation

Turn Power ON or OFF

1. Press the button to turn power on or off. The meter will perform a short self-test when

turned on.

Light sensor

1. The light sensor is permanently attached to the meter. A coiled cable attaches the sensor to the

meter.

2. The white domed light sensor lens is a photo diode and resides underneath the protective cap.

3. The meter automatically zeroes, therefore a zero calibration is not necessary.

4. The back of the sensor has a tripod mounting hole.

Taking light measurements

1. Remove the protective cap from the sensor and face the white domed light sensor toward the

source of light to be monitored. For overhead lighting, the sensor can be placed on a desk or

table top.

2. The light being measured must encompass the entire white sensor dome.

3. Read the light level on the LCD. If the light measurement is out of range an “OL” indication will

appear on the display. If the ‘OL’ appears, select another range by pressing the RANGE button.

Selecting Lux or Foot candle units of measure

Press the LUX button to select lux units and the fc button to select foot candle units.

MX MN Function (stores/recalls highest MX and lowest MN readings)

Press the MX/MN button once to put the meter in MX mode. The meter will now display only the

highest reading (MX is displayed on the upper left-hand portion of the LCD). Press MX/MN again to

put the meter in MN mode where the meter displays only the lowest reading (MN icon is displayed).

Press MX/MN again to have the meter continue to record the highest and lowest readings but

display only the current reading (both MX and MN icons appear flashing), then use the MX/MN

button to scroll through the highest and lowest readings. To exit the MX MN mode, press and hold

the MX/MN button until the MX and MN icons completely disappear.

Data Hold

Press the HOLD button to freeze the displayed reading. The 'H' hold icon will appear on the upper

right-hand side of the display. Press the HOLD button again to return to normal operation (the 'H'

hold icon will disappear). When hold function is enabled the analog bar graph will continue to

display level changes.

Peak Hold

The Peak Hold feature allows the meter to captures light level changes that occur in as little time as

100s. Press the PEAK button momentarily and the ‘P+’ icon will appear on the LCD. The meter

can now measure a fast acting light peak and display it on the LCD. To exit the Peak Hold mode,

press the PEAK button.

Relative mode

Measurements can be displayed as a difference between actual light level and a stored reference

value. To store a reading as a reference, press the REL button when the desired reference

measurement is on the LCD (the triangle icon will appear steady in the upper left-hand corner of the

LCD). All subsequent displayed readings will be “relative” to the stored reference value. For

example, if the reference value is 100 and the actual light level is 125, the meter will display 25. To

view the reference value, press the REL button again so that the triangle icon begins to flash. The

displayed value will be the reference value. To exit the Relative mode, press and hold the REL

button until the triangle icon disappears.

Maintenance

Cleaning and storage

1. The white plastic sensor dome should be cleaned with a damp cloth when necessary.

2. Store the meter in an area with moderate temperature and humidity (refer to the operating and

storage range in the specifications chart earlier in this manual).

Battery Replacement

When the battery power falls low, the ‘BT’ symbol will appear on the lower left-hand side of the LCD.

Replace the six (6) 1.5 ‘AAA’ batteries by removing the rear (center) battery compartment screw and

accessing the battery compartment. Observe polarity when placing the batteries in the

compartment. Ensure that the compartment cover is securely fastened when finished.

You, as the end user, are legally bound (EU Battery ordinance) to return all used

batteries, disposal in the household garbage is prohibited! You can hand over your

used batteries / accumulators at collection points in your community or wherever batteries

/ accumulators are sold!

Disposal: Follow the valid legal stipulations in respect of the disposal of the device at the

end of its lifecycle
