Supported meters

The meters Calibeam works with.

Calibeam measures through ArgyllCMS 3.5.0, so it works with the colorimeters and spectrophotometers ArgyllCMS supports for display measurement. Some meters need a one-time driver setup on Windows, which Calibeam handles. Using a meter that isn't listed? Tell us when you join the beta.

Colorimeters

Runs the calibration: it reads every pattern while you make the changes.

Colorimeters with limits

These run a calibration too, but can't use the spectral (CCSS) correction files a spectrophotometer makes, so most give good results rather than expert ones. A matrix (CCMX) correction made for your own unit still works.

Spectrophotometers

Measures your projector's light once to make a correction file, which your colorimeter then uses for every reading.
