Profiling

For the next couple of minutes, the device will read a range of colours:

Once the Spyder has taken all its measurements, remove it from the screen, and press “Finish”:

After I hit finish I got a pop up that says  "The calibrated brightness does not match the target, therefore the brightness target is being adjusted from 180.0 to 161.0." 

When we were on the brightness step my bar was perfectly in the green area so I'm not sure if I made a mistake along the way.  I did my external monitor first as that's the one I prefer to use when editing.

161?????  Whoa, that's way too bright.

Should I try again? I can take a SS when I'm done adjusting the brightness. I was definitely in the little green area and matched all your settings.  I did do WLED because I was assuming as a Mac Thunderbolt Display. It was a hand-me-down so I don't know much about it.

I'm very nervous about this.  How old is it?

I just tried to calibrate my laptop screen with the SpyderX Elite.  I have a Lenovo Edge 15, old I know that is on the list to update next.  After I hit finish, the pop up says "The calibrated brightness does not match the target, therefore the brightness target is being adjusted from 80.0 to 58.0"  How do I fix this?

[Damien Symonds]

That's perfectly normal, don't worry.

Thank you!  I will keep moving forward.

H it’s me again.  After I hit finish, the pop up says “the calibrated brightness does not match the target, therefore brightness target is being adjusted from 80.0 to 546.0”  is this okay? 

[Damien Symonds]

546??  Gosh, that brightness would burn your eyes right out of their sockets.  Is that how the screen looks to you?
