1. UVR138 English R1 OP 7 Black EN Based on readings transmitted from the sensor the main unit can calculate maximum sun exposure times before the skin starts to burn Each calculation can be customized for a specific user 1 4 Calculations are updated every time a new UV reading is received from the sensor This calculation is based on three factors SKIN TYPE user selectable SPF user selectable UV DATA collected by sensor SPF Sun Protection Factor Individuals react differently to sun exposure The SPF indicates the level of protection needed when time is spent under the sun The selectable SPF range is between 1 50 and relates to how susceptible you are to getting sunburn Enter an SPF setting that corresponds to the SPF protection you choose for your sunscreen products 1 11 low protection 12 29 moderate protection 30 50 high protection For example if your skin is sensitive and you get sun burnt easily you will need a lot of protection from the sun s UV rays In this case you should use a sunscreen with an SPF rating of 30 50 for maximum safety then input the respective SPF in the main unit setting for accurate calculation 8 21 04 11 05 PM UV INDEX BAR CHART DISPLAY The UV index bar chart shows ultra violet level patterns taken over ten hours Ultra violet level readings are taken hourly averaged and then displayed as an index Measurements are displayed in 2 ho2. al INWE E Orecon S CIENT FIC Wireless Ultra Violet UV Sensor with LCD Display Model UVR138 User Manual UVR138 English Cover R1 OP 1 8 21 04 11 05 PM Black MT IT T E UVR138 English R1 OP 1 Black WIRELESS ULTRA VIOLET UV SENSOR WITH LCD DISPLAY MODEL NO UVR138 USER S MANUAL TABLE OF CONTENTS PPO TOT MM 2 Product oVervIgW 2 Dead Rens 2 Geltting started its ee 3 Installing the batteries sesesessss 3 Set UD 1 2 cn NER ERR ERE Ene 4 Wall MOUNT E 4 Table st nd iisip opp tt biete ne tete 5 Ground anchor ore eor p Re ti eo 5 inl TT 7 Background information sss 7 UV index bar chart display 8 User settings 2 ei eei b ipee 8 Setting skin type and SPF sss 8 UV index display ient eee ene 9 Main unit information display sss 10 View current and past UVI values 10 Troubleshooting cess ev 2 2 0 cer eerie 11 Specifications ete aider RPM Ee 11 Safety and care sssssssseene About Oregon Scientific EC Declaration of Conformity sssssss 8 21 04 11 05 PM NI CII TOI TE zZ INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your selection of the Oregon Scientific TM UVR 138 Ultra Violet UV Sensor This sensor records the UV levels radiated by the sun and transmits that data to an indoor weather sta
