Release：999 instrument maintenance network time：2019-10-29

Cm-512m3 spectrophotometer is a multi angle colorimeter introduced by Japan. Many users are not familiar with this instrument, so it is inevitable to encounter such or such problems in the use process. The following will bring you common problems of cm-512m3 spectrophotometer, and interested friends may have a look!

Common problems of cm-512m3 spectrophotometer:
What's the situation when cm-512m3 multi angle spectrophotometer changes all data to 000?
Maybe the white correction data is missing.
First, please confirm the status of the white correction data.
The confirmed operation method is recorded on p.25 of the operation manual.
In addition, the loss of white correction data or measurement data may also be due to the reduced voltage of the built-in backup battery.
The built-in backup battery can be charged, so please use the supplied AC adapter to keep the power on for more than 24 hours.
The details of the backup battery are recorded in p.4 of the operation manual.
After charging, please set the white correction data attached to the white correction plate on the instrument.
The setting method is recorded in p.25 of the user manual.
What should I do if the cm-512m3 spectrophotometer is not connected to the data management software?
Under the premise of ensuring the integrity of hardware conditions such as connecting line and computer port, it is necessary to confirm whether the port number setting in the software matches the computer display (my computer ---- properties ---- Hardware ---- Device Manager --- port). In addition, if portable instrument is used (such as cm-2600d, cm-512m3, etc.), confirm that the instrument has been set to remote mode.
What is the difference between cm-512m3 spectrophotometer and CR series?
The colorimeter which converts color into value is divided into three red green blue sensors with corresponding human eye color characteristics, and a spectrophotometer with sensor array with higher measurement performance.
CR series is color difference instrument, CM series is spectrophotometer.
CR series has been used in various fields since a long time ago. It is suitable for simple color measurement in the field because of its portability.
Cm series with high performance is often used in the fields of coating, plastic, automobile, dyeing, etc. with strict color management and judgment requirements. Especially in the comparison of different materials and pigments, spectrophotometer plays a powerful role.
There are many derivative models of CM series, which can also measure the transparency and turbidity of liquid.
Can cm-512m3 spectrophotometer share the same white calibration plate?
During calibration, the main engine and the white calibration plate of the instrument have the same traceability system, so they can share the same white calibration plate. However, the white calibration plate has fixed white calibration data, so it is necessary to set the white calibration data on each instrument.
