hsg labs Spectro

The hsg labs Spectro is a portable Spectrometer, with a 2nm bandwidth - optional 1nm.

  • ColourSpace INF/XPT/PRO & HTX/HTP & DPS
  • 2nm Spectral Bandwidth
  • Laser Pointer
  • 0.01 to 9000 cd/m2
  • Integrated touch screen

ColourSpace Integration

As with all probes, operation and function is controlled via the Probe Options menu, accessed via the Profiling window, with the left-hand side of the menu providing generic probes settings, and the right-hand side settings specific to the hsg labs spectro

hsg labs Spectro Settings

The Settings options provide specific hsg labs Spectro configurations. Full details for all options can be found within hsg labs' own documentation.

Auto Exposure

Automatic Exposure is the default, and will vary integration time based on the measured brightness when enabled.

Exposure Time (mSec)

Exposure Time sets the time taken for any given reading, in seconds, when Auto Exposure is not set.

Averaging

Averaging is the number of measurement average for a single reading

Spectrum Smoothing

Smoothing reduces the resolution of measurements using a box filter within the range 0 to 100.

CIE Metric

CIE Metric selects from the available options within the drop down list.

ND Filter

The ND Filter option activates or deactivates the ND Filter for measurements.

Laser

The Laser mode defines the Lase setting as auto/on/off.

Screen Off During Measurement

Screen Off During Measurement disables the inbuilt screen to enable better environment light contamination management.

Additional Settings

Additional settings settings available with supported probes.

Intelligent Integration

Intelligent Integration set a nits value below which the i1D3 will perform a second, third, fourth, etc. reading, with increasing integration times, up to the maximum integration time of 6 seconds. The readings will stop as soon as a stable and valid reading is achieved. If no valid and stable reading is achieved a zero value will be returned, enabling ColourSpace to intelligently calculate a replacement value when generating a calibration LUT.

Average Low Light

Average Low Light is a probe generic option, that averages multiple readings in low-light situations using an advanced algorithm built into ColourSpace. The algorithm varies based on the probe in use to provide the best possible results.
Average Low Light should not need to be used when Intelligent Integration is active.

Probe Adjustments

Probe Adjustments are generic probes settings, with consistent operation regardless of the probe in use.

Configure Matching

Probe Matching is really unnecessary with the hsg labs Spectro, as it is a Spectrometer.
The options is provided on a Why Not basis...

Offset

Probe Offset enables a user to manually enter offset values for different probes/display combinations.
Perceptual Colour Match is a preferable approach.

Extra Delay

Extra Delay sets a delay time after the patch has changed before probe measurement starts, and can be set automatically via the Auto button, and manages signal path delays in the image pipeline.
Note: Some probe/settings/display combinations will not work accurately with the Auto function
