3.6 The profile creation process

After the connection of the measurement instrument with SpectraView
Profiler 5 a measurement window pops up.
The window should be located to the middle of the display and the
measurement instrument has to be positioned to the middle of the
measurement window.
If a beamer or a distance calibration of the display should be processed
it's possible to enlarge the measurement window to full screen checking
the <Fullscreen>-checkbox.
The calibration and profiling process can be started by a click on the
<Measure>-button.
The following measurement sequence can be separated into four single
parts.

3.6.1 Measuring Color Characteristic...

The first step of the calibration is to gather the actual color properties of
the monitor. This is required to determine the parameters for calibration
and profiling.

3.6.2 Setting the White Point...

This step sets the color temperature in the monitor hard- ware or via
video-LUTs in the graphics card.
