Precautions - NEC LCD2490W2-BK-SV - MultiSync - 24" LCD Monitor User Manual


| SPECTRAVIEW II - USER'S GUIDE

Precautions:

The LCD display monitor screen is fragile and can be easily damaged if force is applied. Never
•
use suction cups to attach a color sensor to the display. Always use the supplied cable or sling and
counterweight to gently rest the color sensor on the face of the display.
During the display calibration procedure, highly sensitive light measurements are made on the
•
screen using the color sensor. High ambient light levels such as direct sunlight on the screen, may
affect measurements and cause an inaccurate display calibration. Changes in ambient lighting can
alter how images on the screen are perceived. Locate the display away from bright direct lighting
whenever possible and keep a constant ambient lighting level.
Always store the color sensor in the holder when not in use.
•
Never touch the measurement window in the color sensor.
•
Never disconnect the color sensor while the SpectraView software is running.
•
Always allow the display to warm up for at least 30 minutes before calibrating.
•
Do not adjust the monitor color, brightness or contrast controls once it has been calibrated,
•
otherwise the color calibration of the monitor may become invalid.
( Mac OS only) Do not use the ColorSync control panel to switch between different display
•
monitor calibrations by selecting different monitor color profiles. Always use the SpectraView
application to load a previous monitor calibration. This is because all of the necessary color
adjustments, including the Look Up Tables, are stored in the display monitor and these must be set
by SpectraView. The ColorSync profiles generated by SpectraView contain linear Look Up Tables for
the video graphics adapter.
Note:
This document covers both the Mac OS and Windows versions of the SpectraView II software. The features
and functions of both versions are identical unless noted otherwise. The majority of the User Interface
screen images in this document show the Mac OS version, however the Windows version is identical in
layout unless noted otherwise.
