Lumino Meter

 


Color Control Program
NL ComJ


Color Control Program is capable of
accurately analyzing data.

   

FEATURES
  1. Though not displayed on the color meter itself, the main wavelength lambda d of the spectral light and the purity of excitation Pe are displayed to provide an ideal means for LED evaluation and inspection.

  2. The chromaticity, deviation, trend and surface distribution charts are displayed in real-time. The charts that are displayed can be pasted into a Windows software using the Clipboard function. It is also possible to paste tabular data within any range into the Table Calculation software suing the Clipboard function. This gives the user a powerful tool for his own data analysis.

  3. When the MONITOR mode is used, it is possible visually to adjust the luminance. chromaticity, and color temperature while viewing the measurement points on the graph. This features is therefore extremely useful for quality control on production lines.

  4. The RS-232C Variation Unit is capable of controlling up to 15 color meters. With its use, it is therefore possible to measure up to 15 surface distribution data collectively so that the inspection time can be substantially reduced.

  5. When the customer has a standard light source, it is possible to manage the measurement data in accordance with the customer's standard light source. (User calibration coefficient). With the use's calibration coefficient, up to 100 data items can be managed in a file according to each serial color meter number. It is therefore possible to achieve compatibility of the data with the measuring unit previously used by the customer.

FUNCTION
 
Display
Chromaticity Chart In the xyL,u'v'L display system, luminance or reflectivity are displayed in bar graph form.
Table Measurement time,XYZ,xyL, Tc duv, lambda d, Pe, deviation and assessment are displayed in numerical form.
Deviation chart This displays the deviation from the pre-set standard color.
Surface distribution Deviation in luminance and chromaticity according to position are displayed in the surface distribution chart.
Trend chart This displays the general pattern of variation in chromaticity and luminance levels in the form of a graph in which the measurement frequency is plotted on the x-axis.
Plotting mode (This sets the graph plotting method)
Refresh This plots only the most recent measurement values.
Tracking This connects successively the previous and the present measurement values so that the variation pattern can be checked at a glance.
Scatter Plotting is continued by leaving the previous plot intact so that the scatter become obvious.
Template This saves the measurement conditions that are used very often.
Data such as chromaticity, standard color, calibration standard value memory, number of measurement points per screen (for surface distribution measurement), assessment values, and person preparing the data document are registered.

OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
