15、scribing thecolors of visual display units(VDUs)is by the use ofspectroradiometric data.(See CIE No.18 and 63.)These dataare used by summation together with numerical values repre-senting the 1931 CIE Standard Observer and normalized to Km,the maximum spectral luminous efficacy function.5.2 The spec
16、ial requirements for characterizing VDUs pos-sessing narrow or discontinuous spectra are presented anddiscussed.Modifications to the requirements of Practice E308are given to correct for the unusual nature of narrow ordiscontinuous sources.6.Requirements When Using Spectroradiometry6.1 When describing the measurement of VDUs byspectroradiometry,the following must be specified:6.1.1 The radiometric quantity determined,such as theirradiance(W/m2)or radiance(W/m2-sr),or the photometricquantity dete
