+ can include it as a <span style="font-weight: bold;">vcgt</span>
+ tag in the resulting profile. This is the <span style="font-weight:
+ bold;">normal</span> way to profile a calibrated display. The
+ calibration file has usually been created using <a
+ href="dispcal.html">dispcal</a>. If the calibration file indicates
+ that the displays VideoLUTs are not accessible, or if they prove not
+ to be accessible, then dispread will switch to <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">-K</span> mode (see below). If a
+ calibration file is not supplied using <b>-k</b> or <b>-K</b>,
+ then the display will be measured in whatever calibration state it
+ is in, and no calibration information is saved to the resulting .ti3

+ If the calibration file provided created using video range encoding
+ (dispcal -E), then the <b>-E</b> option in dispread will be

+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE</span> that the calibration is
+ loaded into the display hardware just before the instrument starts
+ measurement, after the test window first appears.<br>

+ <a name="K"></a> <span style="font-weight: bold;">-K: </span>If a
+ display video lookup table calibration <a

+ style="font-weight: bold;">vcgt</span> tag in the resulting

+ values. This is the way calibration should be applied if MadVR is
+ being used to display the test patches. If a calibration file is not
+ supplied using <b>-k</b> or <b>-K</b>, then the display will be
+ measured in whatever calibration state it is in, and no calibration
+ information is saved to the resulting .ti3 file.<br>

+ <br>
+ <a name="V"></a><b>-V:</b> [MSWin] If using MadVR to display test
+ patches, then enable Color Managenent (3dLut). This would be used
+ for verification measurement.<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, or 10% of the width of the
+ display if the display size is unknown. 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="E"></a> The <span style="font-weight: bold;">-E</span>
+ flag causes the test values to be scaled to the Video RGB encoding
+ range of 16/255 to 235/255. If the calibration file provided using
+ the <b>-k</b> or <b>-K</b> flag was created using video range
+ encoding, then this option will be triggered automatically. This
+ will also set quantization of 8 bits (see -Z flag below). If your
+ video connection is better than 8 bits (ie. 10 or 12 bits), then you
+ may wish to raise this default.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="Z"></a> <b>-Z nbits </b>Normally the target device values
+ are floating point numbers that may get rounded and quantized in the
+ process of printing them or reproducing them on the display device.
+ If some of this quantization can be accounted for, it may improve
+ the accuracy of the resulting profile, and the <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">Q</span> parameter allows this
+ quantization to be specified. The parameter is the number of binary
+ digits (bits) that the device values should be quantized to. An idea
+ of the number of bits of precision that makes its way to your
+ display can be obtained by using <a href="dispcal.html#R">dispcal
+ -R</a> If Video encoding is selected (see -E flag above), then 8
+ bits is selected by default. On systems using an VGA connection or
+ Display Port with a graphics card with VideoLUT entries with greater
+ than 8 bits depth, or if using the MadVR rendered with dithering,
+ then a higher bit depth is typically possible.<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>dispread</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="J"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">J</span>
+ option runs through the black and sensor relative calibration
+ routines for the Xrite DTP92 and DTP94 instrument, the black level
+ calibration for the Eye-One Display 1, and a CRT frequency
+ calibration for the Eye-One Display 2. For the black calibration the
+ instrument should be placed on an opaque, black surface, and any
+ stray light should be avoided by placing something opaque over the
+ instrument. If a Spectrolino is being used, then a white and black
+ calibration will always be performed before the instrument can be
+ placed on the display, unless the <a href="#N">-N</a> flag is used.
+ Generally it is not necessary to do a calibration every time an
+ instrument is used, just now and again. There is no point in
+ doing a CRT frequency calibration, as this will be done
+ automatically at the commencement of patch reading.<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="H"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">H</span>
+ option turns on high resolution spectral mode, if the instrument
+ supports it. 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="w"></a>The <b>-w</b> flag disables the normalisation of
+ the white patch value to 100.0, resulting in values that are in
+ cd/m^2. This is mainly for diagnostic purposes.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="X1"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">X <span
+ style="font-style: italic;">file.ccmx</span></span> option reads
+ a <a href="File_Formats.html#.ccmx">Colorimeter Correction Matrix</a>
+ from the given file, and applies it to the colorimeter instruments
+ readings. This can improve a colorimeters accuracy for a particular
+ type of display. A list of contributed <span style="font-weight:
+ bold;">ccmx</span> files is <a href="ccmxs.html">here</a>.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="X2"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">X <span
+ style="font-style: italic;">file.ccss</span></span> option reads
+ a <a href="File_Formats.html#.ccss">Colorimeter Calibration
+ Spectral Sample</a> from the given file, and uses it to set the
+ colorimeter instruments calibration. This will only work with
+ colorimeters that rely on sensor spectral sensitivity calibration
+ information (ie. the X-Rite <span style="font-weight: bold;">i1d3</span>,
+ or the DataColor <span style="font-weight: bold;">Spyder4 &
+ Spyder 5</span>).This can improve a colorimeters accuracy for a
+ particular type of display.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="Q"></a> The <b>-Q</b> flag allows specifying a tristimulus
+ observer, and is used to compute PCS (Profile Connection Space)
+ tristimulus values from spectral readings or using a colorimeter
+ that has CCSS capability. 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>
+ <b>1964_10c</b> selects a version of the CIE 1964 10 degree
+ observer that has been adjusted using a 3x3 matrix to better agree
+ with the 1931 2 degree observer.<br>
+ <br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE</span> that if you select
+ anything other than the default 1931 2 degree observer, that the Y
+ values will not be cd/m^2, due to the Y curve not being the CIE 1924
+ photopic V(λ) luminosity function.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="I"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">I <span
+ style="font-style: italic;">b|w</span></span> options invoke
+ instrument black level, and display white level compensation
+ (respectively). Instrument black level drift compensation attempts
+ to combat instrument black calibration drift by using a display
+ black test patch as a reference. If an instrument is not
+ acclimatised sufficiently to the measurement conditions, changes in
+ temperature can affect the black readings. Display white level drift
+ compensation attempts to combat changes in display brightness as it
+ warms up by measuring a white patch every so often, and using it to
+ normalise all the other readings. If just instrument black drift
+ compensation is needed, use <span style="font-weight: bold;">-Ib</span>.
+ If just display white level compensation is needed, use <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">-Iw</span>. If both are needed, use <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">-Ibw</span> or <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">-Iwb</span>.<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>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;"> <br>
+ </span><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,
+ ColorMunki, i1d3 and K10. 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 faster measurement times, but
+ may also give less accurate low level readings.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="Yp"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">Y p</span>
+ option skips asking the user to place the instrument on the display.
+ Normally a grey patch is displayed, and then the user is asked to
+ confirm that the instrument is in place, so that readings can
+ commence. This flag disables that check. This may be useful in
+ automating certain operations.<br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;"><br>
+ </span><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 dispread (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="M"></a> The -<span style="font-weight: bold;">M</span> <span
+ style="font-weight: bold;">"command" </span>option allows a
+ method of gathering each test value from some external source, such
+ as an instrument that is not directly supported by Argyll. The given
+ command is involked 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
+ create a file called <span style="font-weight: bold;">"command.meas</span>"
+ that contains the XYZ values for the given RGB (or measured from the
+ test window) in cd/m^2 as three numbers separated by spaces, before
+ returning. If the command returns a non-zero return value, dispread
+ will abort. Note that a test window will also be created on the
+ system running dispread.<br>
+ <br>
+ <a name="x"></a> The <b>-x</b> flag causes dispread to expect
+ values to be manually entered for each reading, rather than using an
+ instrument to do the measurements. This mode is ideal if your
+ instrument is not supported by Argyll. XYZ values should be entered.
+ It is possible to navigate about the test values being measured, so
+ as to do them in any order, as well as re-do values, in case of any
+ mistakes.<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="p1"></a> The final parameter on the command line is the
+ base filename for the <a href="File_Formats.html#.ti1">.ti1</a>
+ input file, and the <a href="File_Formats.html#.ti3">.ti3</a>
+ output file. <b>dispread</b> will add the .ti1 and .ti3 extensions
+ automatically.<br>
+ <br>
+ <span style="font-weight: bold;">NOTE</span> that on an X11 system,
+ if the environment variable <span style="font-weight: bold;">ARGYLL_IGNORE_XRANDR1_2</span>
+ is set (ie. set it to "yes"), then the presence of the XRandR 1.2
+ extension will be ignored, and other extensions such as Xinerama and
+ XF86VidMode extension will be used. This may be a way to work around
+ buggy XRandR 1.2 implementations.<br>
+ <br>
+ <hr style="width: 100%; height: 2px;"><br>
+ If a large number of patches is being read, the screensaver on many
+ systems can interfere with the operation of dispread. It is
+ therefore advisable in these cases to manually turn off the
+ screensaver before commencing the measurements.<br>
+ <br>
+ If communications break down with a USB connected instrument, you
+ may have to unplug it, and plug it in again to recover.<br>
+ <br>
+ Some systems (Apple OSX in particular) have a special set of user
+ interface controls ("Universal Access") that allows altering the
+ display in ways designed to assist visually impaired users, by
+ increasing contrast etc. This will interfere badly with any attempts
+ to calibrate or profile such a system, and must be turned off in
+ order to do so. Note that certain magic keyboard sequences can turn
+ this on by accident.<br>
