Quick Calibration

You can perform a quick calibration at any time. The only required action is to scan the reflection reference as you would with any other strip. You should only perform a quick calibration after a full calibration has been done. New densitometers are fully calibrated before leaving the factory.

1.Position the X-Rite DTP34 QuickCal densitometer on the reference as previously mentioned.

2.Press and click the button and scan the reference to the opposite end. Release the button. The LED should indicate green if the calibration was successful. If calibration fails (fast flashing amber LED), verify that the strip is clean and re-read.

3.Place the reflection reference in its protective envelope, and store the envelope away from light and heat.

Full Calibration

Note: If the host computer initiated calibration (amber LED), skip to step 2.

1.To manually invoke the calibration mode, press and hold the Instrument button for a minimum of three seconds. The LED slowly flashes amber when calibration is initiated.

2.Press and hold the button (if not previously held) and scan the reference to the opposite end. Release the button. The LED should indicate green if the calibration was successful. If calibration fails, (fast flashing amber LED), verify the strip is clean and re-read.

3.Place the reflection reference in its protective envelope, and store the envelope away from light and heat.
