Single Pass Scan Measurement

1. Make sure that your device is calibrated and the status indicator is pulsating white.
2. Position the ruler with the device on the substrate in front of row #1 of your test
chart. It does not matter if you scan the row from left to right or right to left.
3. Set your software to single scanning mode.
4. Press the measurement button on the device and wait for a short green pulse
before you start moving the device to the opposite side of the ruler. Hold the
measurement button pressed until you have reached the far end of your test chart.
The short delay before the measurement process is required to warm up the
LEDs. The status indicator on the device provides feedback if the measurement
was successful:
20
2x green flash
5
2x red flash
4x red flash
1x green;
2x red flash
5. Position the ruler with the device in front of the next row of your test chart and
measure the next row.
the row was measured successfully.
the row was not measured successfully because not all patches
could be recognized. Measure the row again, but reduce your
measurement speed and make sure that the device starts and
ends the measurement before and after the patches of the test
chart.
the row was not measured successfully because you started
reading the patches too early without giving the LEDs enough
time to warm up. Measure the row again but allow the lamp time
to heat up before you start moving the i1Pro 3 device.
the row was measured successfully but the software expected
the measurement of a different row. Check if the row you
measured is the row the software is expecting.
