How to synchronize parameters to colorimeter

In the app, navigate to "Personal Center" > "Settings" > "Sync to Instrument". After setting parameters and measurement conditions, click "Sync to Instrument" to display them on the Colorimeter screen. Note that some parameters may not support synchronization.

How to find the color card number

Click "Find Similar Color" > "Select Library". You can find the color card number closest to your desired color in libraries such as RAL K5, Pantone Uncoated, and Pantone Coated.

In the search results, the first color card number listed is the closest match to the sample color.

Note: Color card information is subject to update without notice.

How to measure color values and create a color library

In the "Measure" interface, you can continuously measure colors and save them in "Measure History" to create a color library.

How to measure color difference

Click to switch to the color difference measurement interface.

First, measure the first color as the standard. Then, measure the second color as the sample to get the color difference result.

The color bias of the two color contrasts will be displayed. The second color is darker if indicated. The dE*ab value represents the color difference. If the difference is greater than the tolerance (default 2.0), it will show 'Fail'; otherwise, it will show 'Pass'.

Lab color space

The Lab color space is illustrated, showing L (Lightness), a* (green-red axis), b* (blue-yellow axis), C* (Chroma), and h (Hue).

How to modify tolerance

You can set the tolerance for L, a, b, or dE*ab separately. If high accuracy is required, reduce the tolerance. If lower accuracy is acceptable, increase the tolerance.

Inspiration function

The "Inspiration" function allows you to match your pictures with desired colors. You can find colors in the color card or use the colorimeter to measure a color in real-time to stimulate design inspiration.

Computer management software
