To schedule automated calibrations: 1. Press any bezel button to display the function button labels. 2. Press the Open Menu button to display the main menu. 3. Select Calibration. 4. Select Set calibration schedule. You must set the internal clock to set a calibration schedule. 5. Select the amount of time between calibrations, and then select Next. 6. Choose the appropriate duration, and then select Next. 7. Choose the day of the week to perform the calibration, and then select Next. TIP: Although you can choose any day and time, HP recommends you choose a time when no one is using the display so that production is not interrupted. 8. Set the time of the day to perform the calibration, and then select Next. 9. Select Confirm and Exit. The clock starts and calibrations run automatically. Viewing the calibration schedule Once a calibration schedule has been set, you can check the schedule in Calibration > View Calibration Schedule. (If no schedule is set, you will be prompted to set a schedule.) This option also allows you to cancel the calibration schedule. Using a StudioCal XML file for automation By default, the calibration process recalibrates the active user preset. If you want a specific preset or presets to be calibrated, you can define them using StudioCal XML and then install the file on the display. This file is then used for calibration automation. To install a StudioCal XML file: 1. Create a 'StudioCal.xml' file and copy it to the root (top) directory of a USB flash drive. 2. Insert the USB flash drive into one of the DreamColor USB ports on the bottom of the display. 3. Dismiss any calibration or firmware messages that display. 4. Open the Main Menu. 5. Select Calibration. 6. Select Install StudioCal XML. The display looks for a StudioCal.xml file on the attached USB flash drive. Once installed, the file will be used for all subsequent automated calibrations. Accessing automatic calibration validation information You can request the measurement information from the last automatic calibration, which contains the RGB patterns and the XYZ values measured by the instrument. If a StudioCal XML file was installed and contains validation elements, it also includes the XYZ values measured post-calibration for the validation patterns requested. Calibration automation 65
