Analyser 500, the one designed specifically for the Ilford 500 system.
Ross,
I attached the spreadsheet that Chris Woodhouse developed. I sure hope he doesn't mind. I lost the first version with written instructions that he sent me. This was his updated version as of February 2009, but the only instructions I have are the ones in the Data tab.
My calibrations all came out needing needing about a stop of negative exposure calibration. I think this might be do to me using the 300watt bulbs in a newer Ilford head. My calibration sheet for Ilford MGIV in Ansco 130 is included as well. I made a few extra notes to myself, I'm not sure if they are helpful.
Thanks Larry, unfortunately my Mac won't open the xls files (not usually a problem Numbers handles them) I'll try Chris W again, maybe my query is at the bottom of his to do list. In the meantime the Ilford controller gets me there fairly efficiently with Foma papers, of which there are a wide variety all with their own characteristics.
I just wanted to be sure that both controllers are interchangeable before I replace a 500C controller w/ my 500CPM on my Ilford 500H system. I had 1 of my HA glass filters shatter and the other actually start to melt on my Ilford 500H system last week. I finally located 2 new pieces of glass ( at a cost of 175.00! had to buy the frame/ filter and HA glass as a unit). To my good fortune yesterday, I was given an earlier model 500H w/ the "C" controller complete system for free! It's in excellent condition,, and I thought I would use my 500CPM controller instead of the 500C controller w/ my new system. Am I correct that the 500CPM will work? I realize I will have to calibrate the controller.
Thanks to anyone who might lend their knowledge!
Gary
