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.


Note -

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.
