6. Turn on the computer.

8. Calibrate the GA-1120 using ColorWise Pro Tools and the DTP41 (see page 2-10).
Calibrating the DTP41
For the best color accuracy, you should calibrate the X-Rite DTP41 spectrophotometer
every time you calibrate the GA-1120. You can initiate the calibration sequence in
ColorWise Pro Tools Calibrator as part of the process of GA-1120 calibration. The
computer may also prompt you that it is necessary to calibrate the spectrophotometer.
Alternatively, you can initiate the DTP41 calibration process using the Instrument
button on the DTP41. For more information on this method, see the documentation
that came with the X-Rite DTP41.
Multiple users can be connected to one GA-1120 server with ColorWise Pro Tools,
but only one user at a time can use the Calibrator module. An error message appears if
you try to calibrate when another user is already using ColorWise Pro Tools to
calibrate.
You will need the Color Reflection Reference strip that is included with the
spectrophotometer. Remove the strip from its protective envelope, handling it by the
edges only. Keep the strip free of dust and smudges and always store it in the protective
envelope.
