AT 860 NM. REFLECTANCE MEASUREMENTS ,,SHALL BE MADEBY EITHER THE

MONOCHROMATIC OR POLYCHROMATIC ,,MODE OF OPERATION. WHEN THE

POLYCHROMATIC MODE OF OPERATION ,,IS USED, THESPECTROPHOTOMETER SHALL

OPERATE WITH THE ,,SPECIMEN DIFFUSELY ILLUMINATED WITH THE FULL EMISSION

SOURCE D65. MEASUREMENTS SHALL BE TAKEN ON A MINIMUM OF TWO ,,(2) DIFFERENT AREAS AND THEDATA AVERAGED. THE

SPECIMEN ,,SHALL BE

MEASURED AS A SINGLE LAYER BACKED WITH TWO LAYERS OF ,,THE SAME WEBBING

AND SHADE. THESPECIMEN SHALL BE VIEWED AT ,,AN ANGLE NO GREATER THAN

10° FROM NORMAL, WITH THE SPECULAR ,,COMPONENT INCLUDED. MEASUREMENTS

SHALLBE TAKEN ON A MINIMUM ,,OF TWO DIFFERENT AREAS. SPECIMENS SHALL

BE ORIENTED IN ,,DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS DURING TESTING. WHENPOSSIBLE,

THE ,,SPECIMENS TESTED SHALL NOT CONTAIN THE SAME YARNS WHEN ,,PRESENTED

TO THE SAMPLE PORT. PHOTOMETRIC ACCURACY OF THE,,SPECTROPHOTOMETER

SHALL BE WITHIN 1 PERCENT AND WAVELENGTH ,,ACCURACY WITHIN 2 NM. THE

DIAMETER FOR STANDARD APERTURE ,,SIZE USED IN THE COLOR MEASUREMENT

DEVICE SHALL BE 1.0 TO ,,1.25 INCHES IN DIAMETER. WHEN THE MEASURED
