    Hello All,

    I’ve started testing DisplayCAL today, and had high hopes it would support our Jeti specbos 1201 colorimeter. But it has some difficulties using the meter. When we connect it on windows it recognizes the meter, but as soon as we want to calibrate the program errors with “Error – new_disprd() failed with “Instrument access Failed”

    When hooked up to a Mac we can’t find the specbos 1201 anywhere, does it require some kind of driver on OSX ?

    The debug log from DisplayCAL is attached to the message.

    Regards,
    Richard

    Hi,

    I assume the latest version of the FTDI virtual COM port drivers are installed?

    To be honest I never heard of them, but will give it a try this afternoon.

    I installed the driver that came with the probe.

    Thanks

    Installed the FTDI driver, but no Instrument in DisplayCAL on the Mac.

    Tried to add the VID & PID to the info.plist reboot still no Specbos Instrument.
    Made a screenshot from the System Report, maybe you have another hunch what might be wrong?

    Regards,
    Richard

    Installed the FTDI driver, but no Instrument in DisplayCAL on the Mac.

    What’s the situation under Windows?

    On the Mac, please run

    /Path/To/Argyll_V1.8.3/bin/dispcal -?

    and attach the output. Thanks.

    Under windows the device is recognized but when startig the calibration it errors. The windows debug log is attached to the first message in this threat.

    The output of dispcal -? on the mac:

    Macio-1:bin macio-1$ ./dispcal -?

    Ok, at this point, please contact Graeme Gill, the developer of Argyll CMS, either directly or via the mailing list.
