Bug fixes:

The following bugs have been fixed:

  • Problem in which it was not possible to connect with the CL-500A if the decimal separator for the operating environment was set to "," (comma)
  • For correlated color temperature list items, the JIS method list item and Konica Minolta method list item are clearly identified.
  • Problem in which the options "Confirm overwrites" and "Update in same place" could not be enabled when taking measurements using the instrument's measuring button.
  • Other minor bugs.

Changes from Ver. 1.30 to Ver. 1.31

Bug fixes:

The following bugs have been fixed:

  • Problem when using Excel 2013 in which when CL-S10w was registered the first time as an add-in, CL-S10w disappeared from the add-in list when Excel 2013 was closed and restarted.
  • Problem when reading measurement data stored in the CL-500A memory in which luminance, scotopic luminance, and S/P ratio may not be uploaded properly.
  • Problem when reading measurement data stored in the CL-500A memory in which the measurement date and time may be blank.
  • Other minor bugs.

Bug fixes:

The following bugs have been fixed:

  • Various minor bugs

Changes from Ver. 1.10 to Ver. 1.20

Specification changes:

  • Measurement range for correlated color temperature by JIS method has been expanded to
    1,563 ≤ Tcp < 100,000; -0.1 ≤ ∆uv ≤ +0.1.

Note:

If you are using CL-S10w with a CL-500A, it is strongly recommended that you also upgrade the firmware of the CL-500A to the latest version. (Click here to go to the firmware update page.) If the CL-500A firmware is not upgraded, the measurement range will be different when the instrument is used standalone compared to when it is used with CL-S10w.

  • The CL-500A firmware version can be checked by pressing Enter/MENU, selecting "System", and then selecting "Info(SerNo/Ver)".
  • When updating CL-S10w, please uninstall the previous version before installing the new version. For details on uninstallation and installation procedures, please refer to the CL-S10w Installation Guide.
