all subsequent samples are compared for color difference calculations. Delta E (CIE
E*ab or

To make a
Reference
or
Source
measurement:
In most cases, a
Source
or
Reference
measurement is a
Luminance
measurement. Therefore,
the instrument should be set up to perform this type of measurement.
In the case of a
Source
measurement, a diffuse reflectance standard, such as the Photo Research
RS-3 or SRS-3, is placed in the exact location of the measurement area of the device under test
–
for example the face of a display. For making measurements of test samples, the reflectance
standard is replaced by the device under test without disturbing or changing the position of the
measurement instrument (PR-680/680L or PR-680/680L) or the light source.
