Charge the Battery

NOTE: The battery pack must be installed before plugging

in the AC Adapter.

Only use the AC Adapter supplied. The battery pack must

remain in the instrument at all times to operate.

Before initial “remote” use of the instrument, charge the battery

pack for approximately four hours. However, if immediate use

is required, the instrument can be operated “tethered” to the AC

adapter during battery charging.

To attach the AC adapter:

1. Verify that the voltage indicated on the adapter complies

with the AC line voltage in your area. If not, contact

X-Rite or an authorized representative.

2. Insert the small plug from the adapter into the power-input

connector on the instrument. (If you are using serial cable

SE108-92, you may insert the small plug into the power

connector at the end of the cable.)

3. Plug the adapter into an AC wall receptacle.

Apply Power

The Battery switch—located on the back of the instrument—

turns the instrument off and on during battery operation. When

the AC adapter is attached, the instrument remains on and the

battery switch has no effect.

Changing the Aperture Setting (SP64 only)

The standard SP64 can take measurements using either a 4mm

aperture or 8mm aperture. Simply rotating the aperture knob

and switching target windows changes the setting.

NOTE: The large spot SP64 instrument (14mm) does not

have an aperture changing knob.
