Well I finally get to work with my first Sony Artisan display (customer
display that I recommended they get) and I'm having no end of calibration
problems using their calibrator (haven't pulled out my Eye-One Monitor yet
but I'm about to). I basically cannot get it to complete a calibration.
First, it seems ultra sensitive to ambient room lighting. Even if a nearby
light table is left on it complains that there's too much ambient light (I'm
running a calibration right now with the room completely dark!).
Second, if I can get past the ambient light warning and into the actual
calibration, it get's about 3/4 through it and then send up an error saying
that either it was either insufficiently warmed up (it's been on for over 12
hours now with display sleep disabled) or it claims that the ambient light
level changed during the calibration cycle.
The system is a desktop Mac G4 (Quicksilver I think) with an Nvidia display
card. I'm concerned that I'm hooked to Display B (#2 on the card) but it's
the only VGA connection, the other is the flat panel connection. System is
running OS 9.2.2. I've been careful to disable the Adobe Gamma and Kodak CMS
extenstions and have downloaded version 1.2 of the Artisan software. A
search of Sony's lack-of-knowledgebase turned up nothing.
What the heck am I doing wrong? Right now the customer is questioning my
recommendation of this monitor!
