<I have i1 with PM5.
But one more question.
If I already made profile for monitor and changed monitors RGB settings,
should I reset these setting to factory defaults to get native white
point? Does changing RGB settings change monitor white point?>
See Terry's post for "native white point" explanation.
The method I gave will report the current temperature of your display
(if your profile software doesn't already do this), but you shouldn't
infer from this that the reported temperature is the "optimum"
temperature. It just tells you what it is, not what it should be...and
as Terry pointed out, the native white point on a CRT is whatever you
want it to be...if you have control of the RGB Guns. In my example I
used an LCD, which doesn't have control over RGB guns because there are
none. Anything other than native white on an LCD is an approximate
effect, which is why others on the list recommend profiling LCDs to the
native white point.
