Descripción detallada
The calibration is made by using high-quality LEDs to produce a known light level, white, with a value of 4500 cd/m2. The light has a flat spectrum so the calibration is valid over the CIE spectrum sensitivity of the CS140 itself. The LEDs illuminate a diffuser, which itself illuminates the CS140 under calibration. An on/off switch turns off the LEDs and allows the unit to provide a zero check. Each unit is individually calibrated, and the value of luminance it produces is put on a label on the unit. This calibration is traceable, and this value is used in the calibration process.

Release Note for Operating System OS10 for the Campbell Scientific CS140 Background Luminance Sensor
Campbell Scientific has introduced a new operating system, OS10, for the CS140 background luminance sensor. It is fully backwards compatible and is easily installed on all CS140 sensors. OS10 is available free of charge and can be downloaded from the Campbell Scientific website or supplied by email on request. Functionality, including data message formats is unchanged.
Main improvements:
- Bug fixed relating to the main serial communications baud rate and particular versions of CPU silicon.
- Timing bug in RS485 fixed to improve compatibility with certain RS485 interfaces.
