● SelfCalibration

This product is equipped with a built-in calibration sensor. By setting the calibration targets and execution schedule in advance using ColorNavigator, the

calibration sensor automatically operates and regularly calibrates the monitor. This automatic calibration function is called "SelfCalibration".

The adjustment content of SelfCalibration differs depending on the color mode that is executed.

• Calibration Mode (CAL mode: CAL1 / CAL2): The conditions that have been adjusted using ColorNavigator and the measurement device are maintained.

• Standard Mode (color mode excluding CAL1 / CAL2): the monitor's color reproduction gamut is updated and each display mode in Standard Mode is

adjusted as follows:

- The temperature is adjusted so that it is as close as possible to the specified value.

- The gamut values are adjusted so that they are close to each specified value.

- Information on brightness is updated.

When using ColorNavigator, no operations or settings are required on the monitor, however, in environments where ColorNavigator cannot be used, you can

execute SelfCalibration on the monitor as a standalone unit. In this section, the settings for executing SelfCalibration on the monitor as a standalone unit are

explained.

Attention

• It is necessary to wait at least 30 minutes after turning on the power, in order to obtain correct measurement results.

Note

• SelfCalibration can also be executed when there are no PC signals being input.

• Because the brightness and chromaticity vary as you use the monitor, it is recommended to calibrate the monitor periodically.

• The measurement results from the built-in calibration sensor can be correlated with the measurement results from the external measurement device that you want to use as

a reference. For details, refer to the ColorNavigator User's Manual (stored on the CD-ROM).
