By measuring the environm ental light source with an FD-7 master body and then transferring the user illuminant data to multiple FD-5 or FD-7 working bodies, color cont rol using the same illumination light source at multiple locations can be achieved. In addition, the automatic wavelength compensation function min imizes inter-instrument errors when using multiple instruments.
