CALIBRATION
The CALIBRATION function in this monitor measures LCD panel characteristics from low to high brightness values and uses inter-
nal monitor processing to handle calibration.
Calibration is performed using internal signals and do not rely on image quality settings. This monitor uses a color temperature of
D65 for calibration and other color temperatures are derived from this value.
Equipment required for CALIBRATION
• Konica Minolta CA-310 display color analyzer (optional accessory)
• Konica Minolta CA-PU12 or CA-PU15 standard measurement probe (optional accessory)
• A RS-232C cable (male to male, straight) (optional accessory)
Connect the RS-232C input terminal on the monitor to the RS-232C terminal on the display color analyzer.
Use a straight cable.
• Set the Baud rate of the display color analyzer to 38,400.

• Turn on this monitor and perform adequate aging (about 1 hour) before starting calibration.
• Make the room dark so that no external light can enter the standard measurement probe before starting the calibration. When
external light enters the probe, the low brightness characteristics may not be calibrated correctly.
• LCD panel characteristics and instrument error in the display color analyzer may sometimes result in small differences in values
after calibration.
To further fine tune the monitor, set GAIN and BIAS for R, G and B in the VAR mode of [COLOR TEMP.].
• Do not apply the probe to a WFM/VECTOR display on the screen.
• When you are using CA-210, contact your supplier.
