Spectrophotometer Part 4 How to get a Correct Color Measurement

-The first step is to take the car's colour code reference, which, depending on the make and model, can be located in different parts of the car, such as the boot, door pillars or under the bonnet.
The location of this code may vary for each make and model. This information will be considered when you start working with the colour management software.
Once you have prepared and cleaned the surface to be measured correctly, it is time to take the colour reading with the spectrophotometer.
First, in the main spectrum screen, click on "work lists", and then "add new work".
This way, the spectrum will go into reading mode. Place the spectrum in the polished area. It must be rested evenly on the surface.
If the device is properly placed, it will show green lights. Otherwise, it will show red lights.
Then, perform 5 manual measurements without moving the spectrum from the support surface.
Sometimes, the "dark mode" may be activated when measuring dark colours. This is done in order to extend the reading time and luminosity when taking the reading, as reflection is more complicated with dark colours.
After taking the 5 measurements, the result of the reading will be interpreted through the valuation indicator.
Our recommendation is that if the 5 points in green have not been achieved, it means that there is a large difference between the 5 readings taken, so you should carry out the measurement process again.
It is interesting to save the information for each car and repair, which works as a repository of information which can be accessed it in the future if needed.
Finally save the information and connect the spectrum to the computer through the cable. Once the spectrum measurements have been transferred to the computer, we recommend deleting them from the spectrum.
