ECCM2SensorsData.dat needed from Pantone P50 or P51

#1 Post by draco2527 » Sat Apr 06, 2019 9:36 pm

Had to get my MOBO replaced, followed by a re-image. Lost the following file for the pantone:

c:\ProgramData\X-Rite\ECCM-2\ECCM2SensorsData.dat

If you have a P50 or P51 with a working Pantone. Would you mind making a copy of the DAT file and sending it to me?

It would be greatly appreciated.

PS: c:\programdata might not be visible, change it in folder view or type c:\programdata >> Enter, in file explorer to search the directory.


Thank you!

So what LCD screen are you using for your P51?

For the 4k LCD P51 model, there's a X-Rite calibration profile that you can download as per the 2nd URL link below:

Here are the files:
x-rite eccm full folder: https://we.tl/t-zHr8rH8XD5
x-rite pantone folder for missing tables: https://we.tl/t-t6W0HVBN8p


I had a similar issue, boght a p51 mainboard, then p51 palmrest and other parts, and had this issue with eccm2sensordat. I did replace all files like copy paste and ran the sensor replacement utility, then calibration and all worked well. After succes I saw some new logs in eccm folder that showed it actually saves the configuration in eeprom memory so next time you reinstall, probably you are safe without any back-up. This issue may only appear when one of the following: changed sensor, changed matherboard or more or less changed LCD. I had everything changed so there i go :D

Still haven't fixed the issue and I missed the link he posted (as mentioned above, it is no longer valid)

Searching high/low and not able to find the file.

Unfortunately Lenovo thinks that sending a replacement LCD is the answer to this problem. (HINT: IT IS NOT!)

I happened to have downloaded those files.
Uploaded them (as a directory with 2 files) to the same outfit,.
THIS LINK IS VALID ONLY FOR 1 WEEK from today: https://we.tl/t-02j2yPkQmq

I grabbed them, will play with it tonight. From what I unzipped, they might not be the correct files.

I believe they should be c:\ProgramData\X-Rite\ECCM-2\ECCM2SensorsData.dat

The error specifically states to "if you have a backup copy of the file, please restore it. If you do not have a backup copy or it doesn't fix this problem, please report this error to technical support."

I don't have such a machine.

The directory name: P50-Color-Profile is my own and contains these 2 files:
F7HH2-156WF6 #2 2016-10-07 18-46 S XYZLUT+MTX RGB LED.icc
You could perhaps shorten this to: LED.icc
The .7z file contains only: LQ156D1JW05.icm
Where you put those files is none of my business
Didn't see any .dat file

Alternative: viewtopic.php?f=70&t=129350

Maybe helpful? https://sourceforge.net/p/dispcalgui/di ... /1e8dfd1c/

Sorry. Can you reload the two folders that you have uploaded? I am also having problems with the color sensor. If possible you can email me "sonthuy.gtvt@gmail.com". Thank you verry much!

Hey, what on dear Earth is this file? I got a W530 with colour sensor without the file, got a pal to get the file from. But what does it contain?? What does HMM suggest replacing the display panel if it has been lost???

As a separate exercise I'll need to figure out what software can use this sensor on W10


Heh, if this guy is right there is not much lost due to non-working sensor: https://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2017/08 ... nkpad-p70/

Does anyone have the C:\ProgramData\X-Rite\ECCM-2\ECCM2SensorData.dat file for a P71? I am currently getting error 23 while reading. I have already tried a full uninstall and reinstall of the calibration program.

Hi ! Sorry for the excavation of this post, but I'm looking for the file ECCM2SensorData.dat (for a P51 in FHD but I can mod the file if it's for 4k). I got the same problem, after installing from scratch the sensor, the replacement utility doesn't work and says the file is missing.
If someone has this file it will be very appreciated, i did not find any link to download it but in Chinese forum where we can't access.
Thanks y'all !

Ironically, I never got it to work properly under WIN10 unless the file was present.

I just tried it under WIN11, after installing the WIN10 drivers and software for the Pantone and everything works GREAT! As in even the calibration works (something that was a hit or miss under WIN10 when the Pantone was working).

No idea why it is working without issues under WIN11...
