    I got a new monitor, MSI Artymis and I have i1 Display Pro and RTX 3070.

    I freshly installed Windows 10 and Dispacal GUI and added the system environment variable PATH of the latest ArgyllCMS.

    I am not sure why I’m getting this error.

    1. Check for right instrument in 1st DisplayCAL tab.
    2. Check for proper display in the same tab, sometimes Web @ localhost appears by default.
    3. Switch off antivirus till reboot.

    i1Display connects as HID to Windows (universal human interface device), so specific USB controller issues may appear. Try to use another port or hub.

    The device works fine with the i1 Profiler from X-Rite.

    I checked everything you mentioned and I see no issues there.

    -Kill Xrite trap app and make sure it never starts again. Totally useless, banding.
    (reboot just it case, check it is not running)

    -DisplayCal \ Tools \ Detect displays & instruments, try again

    -Try command line spotread too if all fails

    I don’t understand if it’s able to access the i1 or not.

    It’s working, just happens that you did not know how to use spotread. spotread -? if you want to know.

    It’s an app for single measurements where user has to provide the patch to be read, typical params are -e for display (add -X file.CCSS) or  -a for ambient. App starts, initializes colorimeter and if you press space it takes a reading. It’s an easy way to test if device works.
