Long time lurker, first time poster (i started reading this forum for my Toshiba 40H80 rear projector!)
After weeks of reading, I have decided to take the plunge and attempt DIY calibration for my new Panasonic 65" VT60. I bought a new i1Display Pro and an i1Pro for my meters. For the software, I picked up Calman 5 enthusiast, which I run on my Macbook Pro and VM Ware Fusion / Windows 8.1.
I was expecting to be able to use AutoCal, however it seems like the Asian Panasonics do not have the "i085" pin code enabled to enter into the ISF mode required for direct display control. CalMan needs to revise their Autocal for VT60 setup guide, as it lists Asian panels as compatible. With that, it seems like I can only do 2 point calibration using the remote. But the iPad app has "smart calibration" that has the 10point grayscale calibration and that color triangle thingy. However, it seems like making changes to this, only applies to the "Custom" mode. I have not been able to find any good documentation on this app, but is there a way to do separate settings for Professional1 and Professional2 modes using the Smart Calibration?
Apologies if the answer is obvious. It took me 20 hours just to setup VM Ware, CalMan, get my meters recognised by the software and take my first reading.
It seems like my older Panasonic PY800 has similar issues with regard to disabled calibration modes. Not sure what I will do with that one, maybe get a DVDO.
