Hello folks,
Hmm, I do remember the Spectralvision Pro iteration of ColorPort at least read linearization charts (hey, remember those?) in either direction. But maybe that was just when using the DTP20 Pulse?
One thing ColorPort & Spectralvision Pro did that made for a MUCH better user experience on the iO table, was that to first set the 3 corner patches, you could "click" using the mouse, not just the button on the i1Pro. That seems to have gotten lost on i1Profiler.
Using the button on my i1Pro (original) frequently results in the software detecting 2 clicks instead of one, moving past the corner patch I'm trying to mark to the next one. No way to correct this, just have to complete this step, then hit "start over". At first I thought it might just be a "hair trigger" button, but it seems to be a random result. Makes me long for those old days when I could position the i1Pro, then just click the mouse to set patch position.
Anybody else see this on an i1 iO table?

ColorPort never had bi-directional charts for the i1Pro....still doesn't AFAIK.

The Pulse could definitely read bi-directional....and measure rows out of order for that matter in ColorPort. The Pulse charts used a row identifier that took care of all this.....the i1Pro, not so much.
Only problem with the Pulse was the reliance on a chart target identifier that relied on color codes......on a "raw" print from an inkjet printer, many times the 100% green patches were indistinguishable from black and would cause it to wig out.

Yes indeed. But with the i1Pro 2 + new ruler, bidirectional scan is also possible when target measurements are done without using a file with reference data, such as RGB or CMYK. We just need to specify the number of columns.

Hello Lee,
"> The i1 just reports a list of patches. It is up to the software to decide which way the strip was read in."
It can be either way.
The i1Pro 2 can automatically provide data in the proper order if configured for it by the program, either by using a predefined color lists or by using the new ruler input.
Data can also be ordered in the software, but that requires either a predefined color list or a "start/end of line" marker (bar code).

Hi,
The i1 just reports a list of patches. It is up to the software to decide which way the strip was read in.

Was the ability to read in either direction tied to the reference file? Seem to me that capability came and went when measuring strips of different origins.
