b) Select Color display mode or Intensity display mode
The FLUO can be used in two different modes.
In Color mode the dominant fluorescent color after any 100% reference
reading will be displayed automatically. By clicking the right key after a
measurement the next XYZ color channel will be displayed – followed by the
XYZ color channels of the near UV readings.
The Intensity mode will display one value, expressing the total brightness of
the light emission within the visual spectrum.
Toggle between the two modes by clicking the left key.
Exit the configuration mode
Press and hold the right key for at least 5 seconds to exit the
Configuration mode. The current configuration will be saved.
Zero reference and target reference calibration
The FLUO measures relative fluorescence using a non-fluorescent reference
(0% or substrate) and a target fluorescent reference (100% target fluorescent
ink layer). Follow the steps outlined below to set the Zero and Reference
values.
Set the Zero reference
Position the FLUO with the aperture on a non-fluorescent surface, for
example on the substrate without fluorescent ink. Press and hold the ‘down’
key
and push the device to the front until zero appears in the LCD.
All measurement channels will be zeroed simultaneously.
