XMP monitors are optimized to offer the best SDR video range performance in Extended Video Range 64- 1019 mode and this one setting is compatible with both signals that contain super-white levels and those that do not.

Page 31: Appendix A - Direct Connect Autocal
Appendix A - Direct Connect AutoCal The principle behind AutoCal is that the native, uncalibrated state of your display is profiled and saved to the monitor’s non-volatile memory. Then as any color management selections on the monitor are made calibrated states are calculated from that native profile and instantly applied on demand. Be- cause all selections are calculated from this one primary profile capture you can make any selection without having to rerun AutoCal. - Page 32 Appendix A - Direct Connect AutoCal Tips and Troubleshooting Issue / Topic Solution / Tip Monitor displays error This error can occur if the probe you are connecting does not match the message advising you to probe model you selected from the monitor’s menu when starting Auto- check probe connection matic Calibration.

Appendix B - IP Remote Control The monitor can be controlled over an ethernet connection using FSI’s IP Remote Utility (IPRU) application. The IPRU will allow you to control menu navigation, input selection, function button selection, and rotary knob control. The IPRU is also what you will use to load firmware updates. The IPRU can optionally be paired with a Stream Deck and sample Stream Deck profiles and instructions, as well as download links for the IPRU, can all be found at: https://flandersscientific.com/ip-remote/... -
