I have used HCFR in the past with a SpyderII Express sensor to measure/calibrate my Marquee 8500 projector. But I wasn't happy with the low light performance and accuracy of the SpyderII, After reading through the posts here, I replaced it with the sensor in the Eye-One Display LT product.

There are several new/different options with this sensor than with the SpyderII, so I'm probably just missing something simple. But when I try to display "Continuous Readings" at low IRE levels (30 and below) the display/graph does not advance. Once I increase the IRE window to 40 or higher, the display moves along at a reasonable pace, allowing me to adjust my G2 and Drive levels as needed to calibrate my projector.

I thought the problem might be "Average Many Readings at Low Light Levels", but I unchecked that box in the sensor setup without any improvement.

Has anyone else run across this problem?

I uninstalled HCFR and re-installed the newest version, just to be up-to-date. I should also add that when I select the "Measure" for Greyscale, it does seem to read the low IRE windows and prompts me to move on up to the next IRE level.

Thanks

I have. I think it is a bug. My work around was to put the horizontal scale to the highest number (I think it is 100 values). It shrinks things up a bit (zooms out) but when you are done 'getting close' with the continuous mode you can do the static readings to get the final calibration. At least that is what I did.
