FAQs - All FAQs
How do I calculate UV-B and UV-A from GUV data?
What is the difference between the GUV-511 and GUV-2511?
Can I acquire data over the Internet?
I tried to replace the Fuji temperature controller and it is no longer available, what do I do?
What is an immersion coefficient?
Can I get a spectral response for my GUV?
What does the "integrated" column in my software contain?
In many scientific papers we’ve seen the units of the readings in W/m2. Is this the same unit as the one the software uses (i.e., W/m2/nm)? Do we need to do some calculations to obtain W/m2?
How often do we need to do the “dark correct” or “zero”? We did the “dark correct” when we measured the irradiance in our culture chamber. When we go into the field, we will do it again, but do we need to do it every time we go into the field?
We aren’t sure about the numbers that we must put in the Data Recording and Sampling Tabs, specifically in the “Largest single channel tag” and in the “Largest multichannel tag”. What should we do?
