CALIBRATION CARD

 

 

The main Purpose of the White Calibration Card is to perform a white color balance calibration. This calibration occurs 
when the Calibration Card is inserted into the 

M500

 with the ARROW FACING IN towards the 

M500

. (See the 

Calibration Card illustration below) . When this Calibration process is performed, an 

EV_WHITE_CAL

 event will occur, 

which will cause certain settings to be calculated and stored within the 

M500

. During this process, the data displayed 

through the application software will be the previous calibration settings. The new settings will not be displayed until 
the next scan. These settings are used for color balance calculations within the

M500

 during normal scanning operation.

 

 

The secondary purpose of the White Calibration Card feedback in the determination of whether or not dust or debris 
may have accumulated on the 

M500

’s mirrors. The Verification Process occurs when the Calibration Card is inserted into 

the 

M500

 with the ARROW FACING OUTWARD. When this is performed, an 

EV_WHITE_CALV

 will occur. At this point, 

the application software should display RGB images to the user to facilitate the determination of whether or not there 
is dust or debris on the mirrors. Note. The Verification process does NOT re-calibrate the

M500

.
