Before you can use your device or see its status, you need to install the software

application on your computer. Please do not plug in the device‘s USB cable to your computer until after you have installed the software from the DVD. 1. Install the software application from the DVD onto your PC or Macintosh® computer. 2. Review all instructions in this Quick Start Guide before you start using your new device. For more detailed information, please refer to Contents on the software DVD. 3. Remove the “Install software and read manual before ﬁrst use” warning sticker and the positioning sensor protection sticker from the device. 4. After you have completed the software installation process, attach your i1Pro device to your computer‘s USB port. If connected successfully both status indicators light up solid white. The X-Rite i1Pro will not work if it is connected to the USB port on your keyboard or to a USB hub without external power supply. i1Pro power rating: 5 V 500 mA.

The i1Pro device is equipped with two device status indicators on its top housing. The

device status indicators provide feedback on the current status of the device and guide you through the measurement process. General device status: off The device is either not connected to your computer, the software is not running, or the latest software to control the device is not installed on your computer. In the third case, the device can still be used in compatibility mode with software supporting older revisions of the i1Pro device. solid white The device is connected but needs calibration. pulsating white The device is connected and ready for measurement. solid red The calibration of the device failed due to a hardware problem (see troubleshooting section for further information). To avoid interference of the device status indicators with the measurement process, the device status indicators are switched off during measurement.

Before you start measuring, please calibrate the device. If you own multiple devices

make sure that the serial number on the back of the calibration plate matches the serial number of your i1Pro device. Refer to the user guide of your measurement software for additional information on the calibration process. 1. In the center of the calibration plate is a slider to protect the white calibration tile. Open this protective slider until it clicks into place to access the white reference ceramic tile on this calibration plate. 2. Place the i1Pro measurement device on the calibration plate. The device must seat ﬁrmly on the calibration plate. 3. Set the software for calibration of the device and press the measurement button. Status indicator lights switch off during calibration. Once the device is successfully calibrated the status indicator lights pulsate white. If the calibration fails the status indicator lights will pulsate red and then return to solid white. 4. When the calibration is ﬁnished you should close the protective slider for the white reference ceramic tile. A clean white reference ceramic tile is essential for providing accuracy of your measurements. The protection cover should always be closed when the white reference ceramic tile is not in use. If necessary you can clean the white reference ceramic tile with isopropyl alcohol and a soft clean cloth.
