Scanner Calibration PIKO

The scanner pixel correction (PIKO) process:

•

Calibrates the light path of the lamp up to the CCD

•

Balances the pixel sensitivity of the CCD for each pixel

•

Defines the illumination strength (if the lamp is replaced, for example – this
influences the lamp, filter, mirror box, and film mask)

•

Defines the crop to be used for the film mask (illumination on the CCD chip)

The system automatically performs a PIKO:

•

During system startup (because any film mask could be inserted when the system
is started)

•

Whenever you change the film mask

•

Whenever there are considerable fluctuations in light and temperature (light path or
CCD)

IMPORTANT: Do not change the film mask during a PIKO. This interrupts the crop

definition process, resulting in incorrectly exposed prints (brightness,
colors) and possible prints with white borders.

After a successful PIKO, the status line shows the message Terminate Scanner
calibration.

You can also start PIKO manually. Normally, this is only required if you receive a
message that the automatic PIKO was not terminated successfully. Otherwise, the
prints may get white borders.
