If the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-S</span> flag is used, then instead a Colorimeter Calibration Spectral Set (<span style="font-weight: bold;">CCSS</span>) file is created from just the <span style="font-weight: bold;">Spectrometer</span> readings, that allows calibrating any suitable Colorimeter to the Display.<br> <br> <a name="f"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-f <span style="font-style: italic;">file1.ti3[,file2.ti3]</span></span> By <span style="text-decoration: underline;">default</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">ccxxmake</span> creates a <span style="font-weight: bold;">CCMX</span> file by displaying test patches on the screen, and then prompting you to measure them interactively with the two instruments. An alternative is to create a small number of test values using <span style="font-weight: bold;">targen</span> suitable for display profiling (or use the <span style="font-weight: bold;">ref/ccxx.ti1</span> file provided with ArgyllCMS), and then measure them with the two instruments using <span style="font-weight: bold;">dispread</span> to create a reference and target .ti3 files, and then provide the two files as arguments to <span style="font-weight: bold;">ccxxmake -f</span>. Normally the reference file will be created using a spectral instrument and you will want to use the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-s</span> flag with dispread for this. If you want to use a colorimeter as a reference instrument, then make sure that it is the first file provided to the ccxxmake <span style="font-weight: bold;">-f</span> option. The filenames should be concatenated with a <span style="font-weight: bold;">","</span> separator without spaces. You will also have to supply a display name using the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-I</span> option and/or technology description using <span style="font-weight: bold;">-T</span>.<br> When creating a <span style="font-weight: bold;">CCSS</span> file, only spectral readings from the display measured with the reference instrument are needed, and a single <span style="font-weight: bold;">.ti3</span> file should be provided.<br> <br> <a name="display"></a>When running on a UNIX based system that used the X11 Windowing System, <b>ccxxmake</b> will by default use the $DISPLAY environment variable to determine which display and screen to read from. This can be overridden by supplying an X11 display name to the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-display</span> option. Note that if Xinerama is active, you can't select the screen using $DISPLAY or -display, you have to select it using the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d</span> parameter.<br> <br> <a name="d"></a> By default the main display will be the location of the test window. If the system has more than one display or screen, an alternate display/screen can be selected with the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d</span> parameter. If you invoke <b>ccxxmake</b> so as to display the usage information (i.e. "dispcal -?" or "dispcal --"), then the discovered displays/screens will be listed. Multiple displays may not be listed, if they appear as a single display to the operating system (ie. the multi-display support is hidden in the video card driver). On UNIX based system that used the X11 Windowing System, the <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d</span> parameter will override the screen specified by the $DISPLAY or parameter.<br> <br> <a name="dnm"></a>Because of the difficulty cause by TwinView and MergedFB in X11 based systems, you can optionally specify a separate display number after the display that is going to be used to present test patches, for accessing the VideoLUT hardware. This must be specified as a single string, e.g. <span style="font-weight: bold;">-d 1,2</span> . Some experimentation may be needed using <a href="dispwin.html">dispwin</a> on such systems, to discover what screen has access to the VideoLUT hardware, and which screens the test patches appear on.<br> <br> <span style="font-weight: bold;"><a name="dweb"></a>-dweb</span> or <span style="font-weight: bold;">-dweb:port</span> starts a standalone web server on your machine, which then allows a local or remote web browser to display the the color test patches. By default port <span style="font-weight: bold;">8080</span> is used, but this can be overridden by appending a <span style="font-weight: bold;">:</span> and the port number i.e. <span style="font-weight: bold;">-dweb:8001</span>. The URL will be <span style="font-weight: bold;">http://</span> then name of the machine or its I.P. address followed by a colon and the port number - e.g something like <span style="font-weight: bold;">http://192.168.0.1:8080</span>. If you use the verbose option (<span style="font-weight: bold;">-v</span>) then a likely URL will be printed once the server is started, or you could run <span style="font-weight: bold;">ipconfig</span> (MSWin) or <span style="font-weight: bold;">/sbin/ifconfig</span> (Linux or OS X) and identify an internet address for your machine that way.<br> <br> <a name="dmadvr"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-dmadvr</span> [MSWin only] causes test patches to be displayed using the MadVR video renderer. Note that you may have to start the video playback software and load a video clip in pause for this to work. MadVR rendering does not need or support VideoLUT access. Test patch colors <u>will</u> be processed by the MadVR 3dLut.<br> <br> <a name="p"></a>The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-p</span> flag allows measuring in telephoto mode, using instruments that support this mode, e.g. the ColorMunki. Telephoto mode is one for taking emissive measurements from a distance (ie. telespectometer, tele-colorimeter) mode, and typically would be used for measuring projector type displays. If a device does not support a specific telephoto mode, then the normal emissive mode may be suitable for measuring projectors.<br> <br> <a name="y"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-y</span> flag allows setting the Display Type used as a base for color correction matrix CCMX creation. Only base calibration display types will be listed. The selection typically determines two aspects of of the instrument operation: <span style="font-weight: bold;">1)</span> It may set the measuring mode to suite <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_display_technology"><span style="font-weight: bold;">refresh</span> or <span style="font-weight: bold;">non-refresh</span> displays</a>. Typically only LCD (Liquid Crystal) displays have a non-refresh nature. <span style="font-weight: bold;">2)</span> It may select an instrument internal calibration matrix suitable for a particular display type. The selections available depends on the type and model of instrument, and a list of the options for the discovered instruments will be shown in the <a href="ArgyllDoc.html#CmdLine">usage</a> information. For more details on what particular instruments support and how this works, see <a href="instruments.html">Operation of particular instruments</a>. Any CCMX created will work on top of the selected Display Type, so to be valid, the same Display Type must be selected whenever the CCMX is used with this instrument. Installed CCMX files will automatically select the appropriate base type.<br> <br> <a name="P"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-P</span> parameter allows you to position and size the test patch window. By default it is places in the center of the screen, and sized appropriately for the type of instrument. The <span style="font-weight: bold;">ho</span> and <span style="font-weight: bold;">vo</span> values govern the horizontal and vertical offset respectively. A value of 0.0 positions the window to the far left or top of the screen, a value of 0.5 positions it in the center of the screen (the default), and 1.0 positions it to the far right or bottom of the screen. If three parameters are provided, then the <span style="font-weight: bold;">ss</span> parameter is a scale factor for the test window size. A value of 0.5 for instance, would produce a half sized window. A value of 2.0 will produce a double size window. If four parameters are provided, then the last two set independent horizontal and vertical scaling factors. Note that the ho,vo,ss or ho,vo,hs,vs numbers must be specified as a single string (no space between the numbers and the comma). For example, to create a double sized test window at the top right of the screen, use <span style="font-weight: bold;">-P 1,0,2</span> . To create a window twice as wide as high: <span style="font-weight: bold;">-P 1,0,2,1</span>.<br> <br> <a name="F"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-F</span> flag causes the while screen behind the test window to be masked with black. This can aid black accuracy when measuring CRT displays or projectors.<br> <br> <a name="n"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-n</span> When running on a UNIX based system that used the X11 Windowing System, <b>dispcal</b> normally selects the override redirect so that the test window will appear above any other windows on the display. On some systems this can interfere with window manager operation, and the <b>-n</b> option turns this behaviour off.<br> <br> <a name="N"></a><span style="font-weight: bold;">-N</span> Any instrument that requires regular calibration will ask for calibration on initial start-up. Sometimes this can be awkward if the instrument is being mounted in some sort of measuring jig, or annoying if several sets of readings are being taken in quick succession. The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">N</span> suppresses this initial calibration if a valid and not timed out previous calibration is recorded in the instrument or on the host computer. It is advisable to only use this option on the second and subsequent measurements in a single session.<br> <br> <a name="L"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">H</span> option on high resolution spectral mode, if the instrument supports it, such as the Eye-One Pro. See <a href="instruments.html">Operation of particular instruments</a> for more details. This may give better accuracy for display measurements.<br> <br> <a name="C"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">C</span> <span style="font-weight: bold;">"command" </span>option allows a method of relaying each test value to some other display than that on the system running dispcal (for instance, a photo frame, PDA screen etc.), by causing the given command to be invoked to the shell, with six arguments. The first three arguments are the RGB test color as integers in the range 0 to 255, the second three parameters are the RGB test color as floating point numbers in the range 0.0 to 1.0. The script or tool should relay the given color to the screen in some manner (e.g. by generating a raster file of the given color and sending it to the display being profiled), before returning. Note that a test window will also be created on the system running dispread.<br> <br> <a name="o"></a> (CCMX creation) The <b>-o</b> flag allows specifying a tristimulus observer, and is used to compute tristimulus values from spectral readings. The following choices are available:<br> <b> 1931_2</b> selects the standard CIE 1931 2 degree observer. The default.<br> <b>1964_10</b> selects the standard CIE 1964 10 degree observer.<br> <b>1955_2</b> selects the Stiles and Birch 1955 2 degree observer<br> <b>1978_2 </b>selects the Judd and Voss 1978 2 degree observer<br> <b>shaw</b> selects the Shaw and Fairchild 1997 2 degree observer<br> <br> <a name="s"></a>The <b>-s steps</b><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span> parameter overrides the default number of test patch combination steps used in measuring a colorimeter & display combination.<span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"></span> The steps are those out of every combination of R,G & B values of the given number of steps that have at least one colorant at 100%. So 2 steps gives 7 test patches, 3 gives 19, 4 gives 37, 5 gives 61, 6 gives 91 etc. Note that typically this won't make much difference to the resulting calibration, since it depends primarily on the underlying spectral characteristics of the display.<br> <br> <a name="W"></a>The <b>-W</b> <span style="font-weight: bold;">n|h|x</span> parameter overrides the default serial communications flow control setting. The value <span style="font-weight: bold;">n</span> turns all flow control off, <span style="font-weight: bold;">h</span> sets hardware handshaking, and <span style="font-weight: bold;">x</span> sets Xon/Xoff handshaking. This commend may be useful in workaround serial communications issues with some systems and cables. <br> <br> <a name="D"></a>The <b>-D</b> flag causes communications and other instrument diagnostics to be printed to stdout. A level can be set between 1 .. 9, that may give progressively more verbose information, depending on the instrument. This can be useful in tracking down why an instrument can't connect.<br> <br> <a name="E"></a>The <b>-E</b> parameter allows overriding the <span style="font-weight: bold;">ccmx/ccss</span> files overall description tag. Normally this is not necessary. With most command line shells, it will be necessary to enclose the parameter with double quotes, so that spaces and other special characters are included in the parameter, and not mistaken for the start of another flag, or as a final command line parameter. <br> <br> <a name="I"></a>The <b>-I</b> parameter allows setting of the display description string in the resulting <span style="font-weight: bold;">ccmx/ccss</span> file. Since the default display description is probably very generic, it is <span style="font-weight: bold;">highly recommended</span> that a description of the make and model of the display be provided here, or set a display technology description using <span style="font-weight: bold;">-T</span> (see below). The default or given display description will be printed before the menu. With most command line shells, it will be necessary to enclose the parameter with double quotes, so that spaces and other special characters are included in the parameter, and not mistaken for the start of another flag, or as a final command line parameters.<br> <br> <a name="T"></a>The <b>-T</b> parameter allows setting of the display technology description string in the resulting <span style="font-weight: bold;">ccmx/ccss</span> file. The applicability of the calibration mainly depends on the technology type of the display, so a description of the technology (ie. "CRT", "LCD", "LCD + backlight type + LCD type", etc.) is <span style="font-weight: bold;">highly recommended</span>, because it can make the calibration more widely usable. With most command line shells, it will be necessary to enclose the parameter with double quotes, so that spaces and other special characters are included in the parameter, and not mistaken for the start of another flag, or as a final command line parameters.<br> <br> <a name="U"></a>The <b>-U</b> parameter allows setting of the user interface selection character this display type can be selected by, if installed. This character will only be used if there is no clash with any preceding selections. Characters in the range 0-9, A-Z a-z can be used.<br> <br> <a name="Yrn"></a>The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">Y r </span>and <b>-Y n</b> options overrides the refresh display mode set by the <a href="file:///D:/src/argyll/doc/spotread.html#y">-y display type selection</a>, with <b>-Y</b><span style="font-weight: bold;"> r</span> forcing refresh display mode, and <b>-Y n</b> forcing a non-refresh display mode. Not all instruments support a display measurement refresh mode, or the ability to override the mode set by the display type selection.<br> <br> <a name="YR"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">Y R:<i>rate</i></span> options overrides calibration of the instrument refresh rate. This may be useful if the instrument supports this function and the refresh rate cannot be accurately calibrated from the display itself.<br> <br> <a name="YA"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">Y A</span> option uses a non-adaptive integration time emission measurement mode, if the instrument supports it, such as the Eye-One Pro or ColorMunki. By default an adaptive integration time measurement mode will be used for emission measurements, but some instruments support a fixed integration time mode that can be used with display devices. This may give increased consistency and faster measurement times, but may also give less accurate low level readings.<br> <br> <a name="file1"></a>The <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">correction.ccmx</span> is the name of the file to save the resulting <a href="File_Formats.html#.ccmx">Colorimeter Correction Matrix</a> to. It is best to give it a short but informative name that includes the Colorimeter model and the display make and model. By convention it should have a <span style="font-weight: bold;">.ccmx</span> file extension.<br> <br> <a name="file2"></a>The <span style="font-weight: bold; font-style: italic;">correction.ccss</span> is the name of the file to save the resulting <a href="File_Formats.html#.ccss">Colorimeter Calibration Spectral Samples</a> to.
