| SPECTRAVIEW II - USER’S GUIDE
Problem
: No supported calibration sensor was detected.
Solution
:
Try reconnecting the calibration sensor and click the
Auto Detect
button in the
Preferences
dialog
to re-detect the sensor.
It may be necessary to close and re-launch the SpectraView application.
(
ÿ
Windows)
It may be necessary to install the drivers for the color sensor device. Note that only
the drivers for the X-Rite iOne devices are installed by the SpectraView setup application. Drivers for
other devices must be installed manually.
Problem
: Severe color banding appears after calibrating on images and when the test pattern is shown.
Solution
:
Always use a DVI video output if possible.
If an analog video signal must be used perform the following steps once prior to calibration:
1. Display something on the screen that has both full black and full white, such as the Test Pattern in
SpectraView.
2. On the monitor’s On Screen Display, select and operate the
AUTO CONTRAST
control.
3. Proceed with the calibration.
Problem (
ÿ
Windows)
: The ICC profile generated by SpectraView does not appear to be correctly installed
and recognized in Windows.
Solution
:
This problem may occur especially when using a multi-monitor configuration. In some cases
updating the video driver may fix this issue.
The profile can be manually assigned if necessary as follows:
1. In the Windows
Display Properties
control panel, select the
Settings
tab and click
Advanced
.
2. Select the
Color Management
tab on the
Display Properties
dialog.
3. Find the color profile generated by SpectraView and use
Set As
Default
.
A more advanced control panel is available from Microsoft for Windows XP which is much more
reliable for checking the assigned monitor profile. On the www.microsoft.com website, search for “Color
Control Panel Applet”.
