Color Lookup
When you are not connected to the mobile application and you measure a color, Datacolor
ColorReaderPRO will display the 3 closest matches it finds on the device display. It displays
the fan deck name on the first line and color number on the second line.
NOTE
When using in stand-alone mode, results are not saved in mobile application.
Sample Readings
When you measure a color and there is no fan deck
database installed on the unit, Datacolor
ColorReaderPRO displays CIE L*a*b* values for the
sample.
Once you sync a fan deck to your device, you will not see CIE L*a*b* values. If you would
like to go back to seeing only CIE L*a*b* values on the device, follow the steps below:
