Dopey Calibration Question?

PostSat Sep 30, 2017 5:29 am

Just installed my BM mini monitor PCI and all is up and running as it should.

External reference monitor is receiving DR signal via HDMI.

I'd now like to create a 3D Lut for DR using DisplayCal and my Spyder Calibrator.

I've gone through the steps, connected via IP address.

But...

Patch area is on my GUI monitor, not my reference monitor.

I am certain I am missing something absurdly easy here.

So...

How do I get the DisplayCal Patch display to appear on the external ref monitor?

Am I needing to connect my reference monitor to my PC first and create the 3D Lut that way?

You cannot calibrate a reference monitor with the spider AFAIK

Ok, Cheers. Will a higher end one allow me to do that?

isn't it possible by utilizing DispCal and it's CalMAN emulation workflow for calibrating resolve?
