Supported Measuring Devices and Formats

GMG OpenColor can build and measure test charts with n channels and supports the following measuring devices.

Measuring in GMG OpenColor

  • X-Rite i1Pro2
  • X-Rite i1Pro3
  • X-Rite i1Pro3 Plus
  • X-Rite i1iO 2nd Generation
  • X-Rite i1iO 3rd Generation
  • X-Rite i1iO 3rd Generation Plus
  • X-Rite eXact
  • X-Rite eXact Xp
  • X-Rite eXact 2
  • X-Rite eXact 2 Xp
  • X-Rite eXact 2 Plus
  • X-Rite i1Sis
  • X-Rite i1Sis XL
  • X-Rite i1iSis 2
  • X-Rite i1Sis 2 XL
  • Barbieri Spectro LFP RT
  • Barbieri Spectro LFP Series 3
  • Konica Minolta FD-7
  • Konica Minolta FD-9 (only connection via USB supported)
  • TECHKON SpectroDens

You will be able to use X-Rite i1Pro3 Plus and i1iO Generation 3 Plus Table to measure color patches and test charts.

The large aperture results in large color patches (16 mm). As the test chart size is limited by the i1iO table, the number of test chart pages will be increased when using the i1iO table.

When the optional polarization filter is used, you will need to select the Device Type Plus-M3 to activate M3 measurement condition in GMG OpenColor. With the filter, the patch size is even larger (20 mm x 16 mm), resulting in larger test charts (manual measurement) or more pages (i1iO table).

Measuring in third-party software and importing the measurement

To offer a maximum of flexibility, you can import measurement data from any kind of spectrophotometer, provided that the measurement data is spectral data.

Select <other> from the Measuring Device list when importing data from a measuring device that is not included in the list.

Supported wavelength

Ideally, the spectral data recorded by the measuring device should cover the whole visible range of the light from 380 nm to 730 nm. GMG OpenColor also supports the use of data covering only a narrower bandwidth from 400 nm to 700 nm.

Supported file formats

  • ANSI IT8.7/4 standard for measuring data (.txt)
  • ANSI CGATS 17-2009 standard for measuring data (.txt)
