Accuracy
The Field Scout Light Meters are accurate to ±5%. Cosine
correction is accurate to ±3% at 45°, and ±7% at 80°.
The meters display values in the range 0-1999. This must be
multiplied by 10 to obtain Foot-Candles, so the meter range is
0-19990 Foot-Candles. Since 1 Foot-Candle is equivalent to
approximately 10.8 lux, multiplying the meter reading by 108
will compute lux.
