Uploading scenes

The scene tray in the Control Device section shows the available and uploaded scenes.
Load additional scenes from the Scenes menu to upload to the VLB and show them in the scene
tray. In order to see the content of a scene drag it into the scene viewer. It shows the selected scene
and the available material slots.
X-Rite provides 3 preconfigured scenes with 3 different car paint and fabrics sample holders and a
corresponding swatch, which has one material slot assigned. You can load them from the menu in
the scenes section.

Viewing material on the VLB

For using the optimum viewing conditions on the VLB, you should:
Darken the room (doesn't need to be pitch black, but the dimmer the better).
Position the upper edge of the VLB front-opening at the height of your eyes; you should not
be able to look directly into the lamps.
Switch on Head Tracking and Perspective Rendering to have position-based color correction
for the display and correct perspective with respect to the sample.
Stand centered to the VLB – in asymmetric conditions the gloss or goniochromatic effects (if
present) between virtual and real material will not match.
Allow your eyes to adapt at least 5 minutes to the lighting conditions.
Make sure that there are no warnings about display calibration in the error log and the display
tracking symbol in the symbol bar has disappeared.
Materials and scenes which are uploaded to the VLB are available on the touch pad display and can
be operated from there.
