[Radiance-general] Ximage illuminance readings

[steve michel]

I know this is supposed to be fairly basic but needs clarification: I want to get lux readings from my pic files
When generating *.pic files (with -i option for irradiance) , viewing them with ximage and 
selecting a point with the ximage 'l' command gives me values that are clearly NOT lux values (values appear to be 1/10th of my expected lux measurement).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the value in W/m2 at an efficacy of 179lm/watt? For daylight only or all irradiances? If so, what conversion to get lux values? 
 
 
regards
Steve
