Not sure if it's something I'm doing or a problem else where but I can't get Light Space to recognize my Klein Meter. I have managed to complete 2 profiles with it so far but today when I fire up LS to calibrate my new projector I select the com port in this case 3 LS tries to acknowledge it with the circle going round (technical I know) normally it would let me choose probe options at this point but they remain blanked out and I then get a message asking which com port the Klein is on.

I have tried removal of drivers from machine. Really struggling with what to do next hoping it's not the meter that has developed a fault. I cant get Klein software to see the meter either.

Any pointers will be most appreciated if any one is around today.

There is no known problem with LightSpace, so it is most likely to be a problem with the PC or the Klein.

There is a Log file in the 'C:\Users\XXXXXX\AppData\Roaming\Light Illusion' folder.
It is called 'LightSpace.Log'
That may help shed some light on what is happening?
But as I say, this is not likely to be a LightSpace problem.

Edited to add: The fact you can't get Klein's own software to see the probe either really does specify the problem to be with the Klein or PC!

Checked the log as suggested

when it was working I was getting

I guess I should try probe in another pc to see if that will pick it up

Try a different USB port, and a different PC.
Basically the probe can't be seen - which does indeed suggest a PC or probe issue.

Different PC same problem the colorimeter is not responding is what I get from the Klein software

devastated

When/where was the probe purchased?

Steve

2 weeks ago purchased from you

sorry Steve didn't really want to trouble you on a weekend was hoping it was a simple fix

No Problem.
We'll organise Klein to repair/replace.
Wanted to know so we can start the process.
I'll contact you via e-mail as soon as I have more info.

Steve

Thanks Steve

I should say, this is very unusual - never known a K10-A to fail...
But, Klein support is fantastic!

E-mail sent to start the replacement process.

Steve

I think Klein comes with some sort of calibration program, maybe run that program and see if your PC picks up on your K10-A.

I have the same problem except it is only on port 9, LS will prompt for my active ports (3-6-9). Ports 3 and 6 work but port 9 will not work, nor will port 9 work for my Lumagen 2041. The only thing port 9 will work for is my I1Pro 2, the I1Pro comes with its own drivers. The Klein and the Lumagen (if used with a rs-232 to usb adapter) you will need the FTDI's VCP drivers.

I run Windows 7 pro 64 bit.
