Imagemagick 6 internally treats grayscale images as 3 equal RGB channels. To outside programs it is actually only one channel. For example:

convert logo: -colorspace gray x.jpg

exiftool -s -ee -g1 -u -n -D x.jpg

sorry,I don't understand,I am usingImagemagick 7,How to use commands to change the color of grayscale images

[fmw42]

What do you mean by change the color of grayscale images? Do you want to colorize them? Or do you want to make the grayscale image become 3 channels RGB format?

Your question was:

The next,I need to convert it to a single channel color image, what should I do?

In Imagmagick 7, doing your command should make a single channel grayscale image.
