Hi everyone, today I'm going to show you how to use this Digital Lux Meter, as you can see, this Digital Lux Meter is very small and compact. And before I start I would just like to point out that this sensor here on top is actually rotatable so you can actually measure light from any angle from where you're standing. So let's start, just press this ON button and instantly you will get readings. As you can see on the top is the Lux values, so the light and the bottom half actually is the temperature, so it actually comes with a built-in thermometer. Let's start with the first button here on the right, you see it says Lux and FC. This is basically the Unit Button for the light. So press that once, it will go from Lux to Fc, Fc standing for Foot Candles. And press that again you will go back to Lux. The second button here on the bottom is the Celsius and Fahrenheit button as you can see, you just press that once, it will jump from Celsius to Fahrenheit, press that again and it will go back to Celsius. Also this button is the Back Light so as you can see, this meter has a pretty small screen already. But if you're measuring during night time or in darker areas, you just want to hold this button for a while and there you go, you get a very bright and green back light. Very, very practical and very, very useful. So just to turn that off, you want to hold that again and there you go. The last button actually serves three functions. So if you press it a first time, it is just a regular Hold Function, which means everything on the screen is going to freeze, so if the numbers or anything fluctuating it will just stop. If you press that a second time, you will go to the maximum, so the maximum function is basically anything above this current reading, is going to show, so basically going to show the maximum reading in real time. Same thing if you press it a third times, it will go to minimum, so what minimum does is basically opposite to maximum, it's going to show anything below this current number in real time. So press that a fourth time and you're back to normal. So to basically to turn it off if you're done, just hold this power button for 2 seconds and you're good to go. Hope you found this video useful and I will see you guys next time. Thank you very much.
