3. Perform one of the following:
• Select Stop after Time Out, and type the stop time in the text box.
• Select Stop after Pulses, and type the number of pulses in the text
box.
• Select Stop when Energy is reached, type the amount in the text box,
and then select the unit from the drop down list.
• Select Manual Stop to continue measuring the exposure until you
press Stop.
4. Click OK. The Exposure Setup dialog box closes.
5. Click Start. For all modes except Manual Stop, the progress bar shows the
continuing progress of the exposure measurements.
6. To stop the exposure measurements, click Stop, or wait for the exposure
period to complete.
7. Click Close to close the Exposure Screen dialog box.
Adjusting Calibration Factors
Warning: Adjusting the calibration factor makes a permanent change in the head.
It is strongly recommended that before making any change to the factor,
the original factory setting is recorded separately. This will make it
easier to restore the value to its original setting later if needed.

The sensitivity of the various Ophir pyroelectric sensors varies from one to
another, as well as with wavelengths. Therefore, Ophir pyroelectric detectors are
individually calibrated against NIST traceable standards. In addition, the
calibration is corrected in the devices for different wavelengths. For more
information on calibration, refer to Appendix B – Calibration, Traceability, and
Recalibration.
