Note: the original CDL specifications allow for Power, Slope and Offset. Pluto
applies a matrix internally to allow the operator to work in Lift, Gamma, Gain to
give the "feel" of a traditional primary colour corrector. When the current grade
is saved, the resulting CDL data is calculated and saved as Power, Slope and
Offset to comply with the ASC's specification.
Step 6: Download the CDL data. When the Pluto is next connected via ethernet
to the software control app, click on the Pluto in the Left Hand Pane (see Chapter

current grade into a slot of the Pluto. Use the Right hand control Knob on the
front panel to bring up the CDL Menu, as described in the next section.
