Measure with Nix Spectro 2

You can measure color patches on a page using the Nix Spectro 2 spectrophotometer.

When you select the Spectro 2 as your measurement method, you can set the instrument settings:

  • Measurement mode - Select the type of measurement that you want. You only measure in patch mode.

    • M0 - UV included
    • M1 - D50 UV included
    • M2 - UV cut

When a page has been successfully measured, you can check the measurements. If any measurements are not as expected, you can remeasure the strip.

  1. Place the patch page on a smooth, even surface.
  2. Place the Spectro 2 at the center of the first patch of the strip indicated on the screen.
  3. Press the space bar, and after the Spectro 2 vibrates, quickly move it to the next patch on the right.
  4. Wait until the Spectro 2 vibrates again and continue measuring until you reach the end of the strip.
  5. After you successfully measure one strip of patches, move the Spectro 2 to the first patch of the next strip.
  6. Press the space bar and measure the remaining strips in the same manner until you have measured all patches on the page.
  7. Continue to measure the remaining patch pages (if any) in the same manner until you have measured all patch pages.
  8. After you measure the last page, click Next.
