After the calibration and profiling SpectraView Profiler shows a short
summary of the results. Now you can run a more detailed validation.
Validation
By using this option in the review menu of the control panel, you can
gather more details about the quality of the calibration of the display.
You should use this option once in a while to validate the calibration
of your monitor. Over time the state of a monitor may change (aging,
changing parameters in the OSD, etc.) and the monitor may not display
correct colors any more. Clicking
<Validate> will open the well known
measurement window. Position the instrument on the measurement
area and click
<Measure> to start the validation process.
Validation is good when most of the measurement values are in the
green area (dE <=1). Depending on the quality of your monitor, some
values might be in the yellow area, but this is still acceptable. Due to
their simplicity, matrix-based profiles are not as accurate as LUT-based
profiles.
For a more detailed explanation, refer to the extended part of the manual
(chapter 4).
Congratulations. You can close SpectraView Profiler now. The calibra-
tion and profiling of your monitor is done.
Sample of an excellent validation result.
