Light meter question...

[Snewt1]

Hey, just got a new LM631 /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif, I've got a question for the more seasoned users...

When measuring lux with the meter, I get an "OL" on the X10 setting at one meter. If I back up to 2 meters, it comes back in range. What conversion should I use to correct to one meter?? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thinking.gif

Thanks
