Don't work with sensors that require an initial calibration #3

Open scyomantion opened 3 years ago

scyomantion commented 3 years ago

Sensors like i1Pro2 or SpyderX needs an initial calibration when spotread starts. There is currently no handling for this in the code.

I have a SpyderX and was playing around with sensortest to see if I could add support for the initial calibration, but it seems to be getting stuck while waiting for the "Hit ESC or Q..." after sending input. I haven't touched c++ since college so my debug skills aren't up to snuff but is there anyway to confirm that spotread is actually getting that input? Doesn't look like it would be a deadlock between stdin/stdout based on lock usage. image

I confirmed that spotread works if I run it manually. Looks like support for passing parameters to spotread will be needed as well for the SpyderX. Adding -N to the end of the command in the ini doesn't do the trick.

Hi, I am creating a new version for supporting this, but I have not a sensor that needs a calibration in front. Could you please try the attached version? There is also an setting debug=1 in the autocal.ini so that the program will generate a debug.log file in the same folder. Could you please attach the file? Thanks

Attached the debug logs, got error 4 message. debug.log

Thanks for the debug.log. I also tested a bit with another user. I think the best way would be to create a needs calibration setting in config that runs spotread first with -O and after that with -N config option as suggested in the documentation in ArgyllCMS.

Hi, I`m trying to get a SpyderX work with JVC Autocal V7. I enabled the Calibration option in autocall.ini. But the JVC autocal SW says: "Warning: Connection to the Sensor was cut off...Try again!" The message "Place the Cap on the instrument" pops up and there is a Windows Sound as you unplug the usb and insert it again.
