Measuring Tips

If a color bar has to be measured in the single-patch mode, make sure
to do this in the correct order. Start with the strip at the top and measure
the patches from left to right.
Strip Scanning with SpectroJet and RS 800
1. Make sure you have precisely specified the size of the color patches
and the size of the gaps between them. You should use a precision
of two decimal places (see page 8-19).
2. Place the instrument’s measuring head on the white area to the left
of the color bar, very close to the first patch. Precisely align the edge
of the measurement device parallel to your color bar. Don’t leave any
space between the device and color bar (see Fig. 7-1).
3. Press the button on the device once (SpectroJet) or twice like a double
click (RS 800), respectively.
A beep indicates that the device is ready. Instructions on how to perform
the measurement are displayed at the bottom of the dialog.
4. Glide the device over the color bar until a beep indicates that the last
patch has been measured. If the measurement was successful, the
color patches you have measured are displayed in the dialog.
5. If the color bar consists of multiple strips, measure the next strip in
the same way.
