Re: Is there by chance an Open Source pilot for the Spectrocam ?
Tyler, I probably have the latest for OSX too (1.7.5). It is a PPC file. It works in Snow Leopard still, though I wished I could carry it through into Mountain Lion to have it more handy, but that is minor mater since I so seldom use it, and there might be some other problems using that old gear in ML. Yes as you recall, the scanning charts are built in Spectrocam software and measured (automatic patch recognition as you move the device), then exported in whatever format you wish (Spectral, IT8.7/3 Lab or XYZ, Logo, ColorBlind, ProfilerPro (Pantone-ColorVision, the one I still use too), Kodak Colorbus, ExportExample, Monaco, Onyx, Praxisoft, PrintOpen). I can see that there are some bugs when I measure patches one by one, but it's probably due to the soft part, not to the instrument, since as you move forward the "missed" patches suddenly fill with contents. When measurements are taken in a row, all works fine for me. Paul
From: Tyler Boley Ergosoft supports it amongst others in a "universal" setting, perhaps try some other settings? Also, back in the Spectrocam days sometimes you saved out measurement files from the Avante software itself to import into profilers, I believe I had to do that with Colorvision at one point. I have mine stashed away somewhere, became very unreliable. I may have the last version of their software that was supported under OSX if you need it, have Windows too I think... Tyler
