Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of Extech’s Digital Light Meter. This professional meter, with proper
care, will provide years of safe reliable service.
Meter Description
1. LCD Display
2. Data Hold Switch
3. Power Off/Range Switch
4. Analog Output Terminal
5. Battery Compartment (rear)
6. LUX/Fc Switch & Response Switch
7. Light Sensor
8. Zero adjust
Operation
1. Select Units (Lux or Ft-candle) and Response Time (Fast or Slow) on the slide switch.
Typical selection is Slow and Fc using the gray lettering.
2. Select the maximum range on the "Range Switch"
3. Hold the "Light Sensor" so that the sensor faces the light source to be measured.
4. The Display will indicate measured values. Use a range display multiplier if on the Lux
20,000 and 50,000 ranges or on the Fc 5000 range.
5. To "hold" a measurement, slide the "Data Hold Switch" to the "hold" position. The reading
will "freeze" in the display until the "Data Hold Switch" is released.
Note 1: An Over Range indication is a display of "I ". If this occurs, switch to a higher range.
Note 2: For measurements made on the Fc 5000 range, the displayed reading must be multiplied
by 10.
Note 3: For measurements made on the Lux 20000 or 50000 range, the displayed reading must
be multiplied by 10 and 100 respectively.
Note 4: The meter will indicate values above the maximum ranges. The accuracy of these
measurements is unknown.
Range Display Multipliers
Range Units Multiplier
200 Fc Direct reading
2000 Fc & Lux Direct reading
5000 Fc Reading x10
20,000 Lux Reading x10
50,000 Lux Reading x100
Example: If a measurement on the 5000 Fc range displays 350, then the actual measured value
is; 350 X 10 = 3500 Fc.

Selecting a Measurement Range
The meter has three measurement ranges (0-200, 0-2000, and 0-5000 Fc) and (0-2000, 0-20000, and
0-50000) Lux). The proper range selection will produce the most accurate reading. Always select the
range that produces the maximum number of digits without exceeding the maximum count for that
particular range. For example, a reading of 1456 Fc should be read on the 0 - 2000 range, not the 0-
5000 range.
Zero procedure
The meter zero (display with no light input) may change with time. Occasional checking and
adjustment may be required.
1. Completely cover the sensor to block out any light.
2. Set the range switch to the lowest Lux or Fc range
3. Using a small screwdriver, adjust the “Zero” control for a zero display. The last digit may
change slightly. This is normal and does not affect the accuracy of the meter.
Analog Output
The analog output jacks on the front panel produce a 0.1mV DC per digit signal that can be used for
recording or datalogging purposes.
Lighting Type Correction Factors
The 401025 light meter is calibrated under a precise "Standard tungsten light source of 2856OK". If the
meter is to be used under a different type of light the correction factor of from the table below should
be applied to the readings obtained.
Mercury Lamp x1.14
Fluorescent Lamp X0.92 to 1.12
Daylight x1.00
Sodium x1.22
Metal Halide x1.00
Replacing the Battery
When the left corner of the LCD display shows "LO BAT", it indicates the battery output is below the
design limit and the battery needs to be replaced. However, reliable measurement can still be taken for
another few hours before the tester becomes inaccurate.
1. Open the Battery Cover at the back of tester and remove the battery.
2. Replace with a 9V battery and install the cover.
