Using ATI Vision with Raptor
Return to the main Raptor page
While New Eagle's Raptor-Cal offers the most integrated support of typical calibration methodology workflows, we understand that you may already be familiar with a particular third-party calibration tool. As a result, Raptor-Controllers and Raptor-Displays support the industry standard XCP protocol, available in common calibration tools.
