Tip: Notebook LCD‘s
by Color Solutions Software
Most Notebook LCD‘s just offer an adjustment
of the luminance. In order to
obtain the best results, set luminance
to maximum and proceed to section
.5 Calibration and profiling
Check if the indicators are in the green area of the
diagram. Through this adjustment you will get good
reproduction of the black tints on your monitor.
If you have a monitor which supports automatic hardware
calibration (e.g. EIZO ColorEdge CG 210), you can skip the
next part of the manual. Please proceed to section 3.5 Cali-
bration and profiling.
. Presetting the monitor hardware
This section explains how to prepare the monitor hardware
manually. Depending on the type of monitor (LCD or CRT),
the process differ.
Because flat screens (LCDs) are using a different technology
it’s not necessary or possible to set up the same parameters
for LCDs as for CRTs.
You can skip some of the steps necessary to prepare a CRT’s
hardware. Click to go on with the next step.
. .1 Brightness (CRTs only)
Click to adjust the brightness of your monitor. A
new window with a black measurement patch will pop up.
Before you start to measure, please set the contrast of the
monitor to maximum (100%) via the OSD of your monitor.
Brightness should be set to minimum (0%) or to a level, that
allows you to see something on your screen.
If the black measurement patch looks gray, then brightness
is too high.
After this rough pre adjustment, position the measure-
ment device on the monitor and start the measurement by
clicking .
