Using the Workstation Details

Opening the Portal

This feature is not available in stand-alone mode.

Click on the icon (Open in Portal) to open the workstation details page in the QAWeb Enterprise Portal using the default internet browser application (requires Portal user authentication).

Task overview

The Task overview window indicates which calibration tasks and QA tests are applicable to the workstation. This is determined by the applicable calibration policy, the applicable QA policy, and the configured use of the displays connected to the workstation.

To verify the physical location positioning of the displays, click the Identify button. A display number indication will be temporarily shown on each display.

Modifying the use of a display

Modifying the use of a display is only possible in stand-alone mode (in online mode, the use is controlled in the Portal).

To modify the use of a display (stand-alone mode only), use the drop-down menu associated with each display.

Modifying the ambient light conditions

The agent can be configured to assume a certain level of ambient light (ambient illumance, symbol E, unit lx) in a reading room. During calibration and QA tests, the reflected ambient light (Lamb) is calculated by multiplying the configured ambient illumance (E) with the diffuse reflection coëfficient of the display (Rd) (Lamb = E * Rd).

The default ambient light setting is 35 lux.

After modifying the ambient light setting, a new calibration should be performed.
