The manual for the CP291 ColorPro Report software covers the process of capturing, storing, and printing color calibration data, which includes pre- and post-calibration measurements for video display white balance. It also explains how to transfer this data from a Pocket PC to a host PC for generating detailed calibration reports and provides troubleshooting tips for ensuring the data is correctly transferred and stored.
Manual Overview
The CP291 ColorPro Report software is designed to facilitate the capture, storage, and printing of color calibration data for video displays. The process begins with capturing pre-calibration data by measuring the color temperature at low and high luminance levels using the CP291 Color Analyzer. This data is saved on a Pocket PC and later transferred to a host PC for further processing. Post-calibration data is captured similarly after the display has been calibrated according to guidelines provided in related tech tips. The saved data is transferred to the host PC by connecting the Pocket PC and copying the report file to the designated folder. The CP291 software, installed from a supplied CD, allows users to enter customer and display information, and generate a graphical Display Calibration Report. This report can be printed and serves as proof of calibration, with options to include dealer information and a company logo. The software also supports data transfer to Microsoft Access for database management.
Quick Issues Covered
- Transfer calibration data from CP291 to PC for reporting.
- Capture pre and post-calibration data for display adjustments.
- Generate and print graphical calibration reports for customer records.
