10.5.3 Connecting the Calibrator Puck

Once you adjust your viewing environment, connect a monitor calibrator device (called a puck) to your workstation.


Note -

The puck is not mandatory, but it is highly recommended that you use it to calibrate your color monitor. If you do not have a puck, skip to "10.5.4 Running Calibrator Tool".


10.5.3.1 To Connect the Calibrator Puck

    Connect your puck to either serial port A (1) or port B (2) of your workstation.


IA only -

Connect the puck to port 1. If your workstation does not recognize the new device (the puck), you may need to turn off your machine and reboot.


The puck sticks to your monitor's screen with a suction cup. See Step 4 for instructions on when to use the calibrator puck.
