Updating Profiles

Update Scanner Profile

Script Name

IC_update1.scr

Concept

IC_update1.scr creates and updates a scanner profile with HP Scanjet calibration and characterization data. It connects the scanner profile with a monitor profile to create a complete profile. The complete profile is then used to evaluate an image. The resulting image is saved for post-test subjective evaluation.

Description

This script demonstrates that the KCMS framework can create and update a scanner profile with calibration and characterization data. The data used will not necessarily match your scanner.

The test script verifies that, after the profile is updated, it can be connected to a monitor profile and the resulting profile used to evaluate images.

The script creates a scanner profile and sets several attributes after which it performs the UPDATE: command. Then it saves the updated profile and connects it to a monitor profile. It evaluates the test image using this complete profile. Then it frees the profiles from memory.

Verification

All the commands listed in this test are expected to complete successfully. You need to subjectively evaluate the image resulting from the EVAL: command.

Update Monitor Profile

Script Name

IC_update2.scr

Concept

IC_update2.scr creates and updates a monitor profile with calibration data. Monitor profiles in this test contain no characterization data; however the SETATTR: command must set the monitor white point and the CIEXYZ chromaticity for the red, green, and blue phosphors.

The monitor white point and chromaticity for the red, green, and blue phosphors of ICC profiles are defined in CIEXYZ color space. After the profile is created, it is connected with a printer profile to create a complete profile.

The scanner profile will have been previously verified. The complete profile is then used to evaluate the image. The resulting image is saved for post-test subjective evaluation.

Description

This script demonstrates that the KCMS framework can create and update a monitor profile with calibration data. It uses the Sony 16" monitor profile distributed with the KCMS product and updates it with the appropriate monitor calibration data. The resulting data may not match your system characteristics.

The test script examines monitor profile updating. It loads the monitor profile and performs the appropriate SETATTR: commands. It then performs the UPDATE: command. It saves the updated profile and frees it from memory. It reloads the profile and connects it to a printer profile. Using this complete profile, it evaluates the test image.

Verification

All the commands in this test are expected to completed successfully. You need to subjectively evaluate the image resulting from the EVAL: command.
