Bad data in iQC / iMatch with SP or 900 series instruments
Customers using Color iQC or Color iMatch with an X-Rite portable (SP62, SP64, 962 or 964), where the instrument is set to a language other than English, may need to force the instrument to use periods in the spectral data being sent to the computer.Run HyperTerminal to change this setting:
-
Connect the SP62, SP64, 962 or 964 to computer.
-
Change the language in the SP62, SP64, 962 or 964 (example Spanish).
-
Run HyperTerminal (Start, then Run "hypertrm.exe").
-
Set HyperTerminal as follows...
- Baud: 9600
- Data Bits: 8
- Parity: None
- Stop bits: 1
- Flow Control: None.
-
Type this command using capital letters: 0022CF (zero, zero, two, two, C, F) then press ENTER [Note: you will not see what you type on the screen.].
-
Then type in capital letters MP (M, P) then press ENTER.
-
Close HyperTerminal.
The instrument is now configured to send spectral data in the format needed by Color iQC and/or Color iMatch. An instrument reset will cancel this option.
