You are right...mine too came with the UV in the OFF position. I was
recently referencing something in the user manual and I misread the
details
about the UV switch. It clearly stated that the machine comes with
the UV
"excluded". But for some reason, my eyes were reading "included".
This seems odd. I think there might be some (understandable)
confusion about XRite's UVexcluded and UVincluded terminology.
UVexcluded means the UV filter is in front of the spectro and the
device is taking measurements that exclude UV information. UVincluded
means the filter is OFF (not n front of the spectro) and the
measurement data includes UV information. That's why I asked you if
the lever was to right or to the left - that's the only way I know to
talk about the DTP70 that breaks through the confusion. In which
position (left or right) is your UV filter lever?
If the manual says it comes in the UV excluded position that means
the lever is to the right with the UV filter engaged and it is
generating data that excludes UV information. Does this make sense?
