Brightness

The device will take a minute to read black, red, green, blue and white. Then it will stop here:

During my testing, I found that sometimes the software stopped to ask me to put the brightness up to maximum; but other times it didn’t. I confess I don’t understand why. Anyway, do it if it asks you to.

I trust this will be self-explanatory. After reading the message window and pressing OK to close it, you look at the brightness bar, then use the brightness controls in your computer’s control panel to adjust its brightness up or down as needed to get the white bar in the green zone. Each time you tweak your screen’s brightness, press the “Update” button to refresh the reading.

If you’re on a PC, Alt-Tab is what you use to switch quickly between programs. If you’re on a Mac, it’s Cmd-Tab. This allows you to quickly flick between the Spyder window and the Display window where your brightness slider is.

Don't be worried if you can't hit exactly 80.  Just get as close as possible, and err on the low side if necessary.

Once your brightness is good, press “Continue“.

my update button isn't working, the current remains at max brightness. I've started again to see if that solved it and still the same, any ideas? thanks

nevermind, after several tries and a system reboot it is working now!

the closest I have without going over is target: 70 current: 54.  Too off? 

[Damien Symonds]

Yes, too low.

[Melinda Almaguer]

The only other option is to go to a current of 76.0.  Am I doing something wrong ?

[Damien Symonds]

It sounds like you're using the stupid keys on your stupid keyboard to stupid adjust your stupid brightness on your stupid Mac?

Only use the slider.
