Lamp spacing, direction, diffusers, shelves, reflections and the receiving surface can change the lighting pattern even when the electrical feed remains unchanged.<\/p>\n<p>This article helps a retail-fixture OEM agree a repeatable acceptance method.

Retain module identity and controller state. A dim section that correlates with a reduced receiver voltage deserves an electrical-path investigation. A similar voltage at the compared feeds points the investigation toward other causes; it is not proof that the complete electrical system has passed.<\/p>\n<p>Warm-up, dimming and colour selection should remain attributable. Check whether two measurements were taken in the same mode before treating them as a design change. Do not raise the output setting until a dark corner looks bright: other modules may exceed their permitted voltage, and the optical distribution could remain poor.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<section id=\"calculate-the-agreed-metric\">\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"State_the_uniformity_definition_explicitly\"><\/span>State the uniformity definition explicitly<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Different ratios describe different aspects of a distribution.
