•Turn on this unit and perform adequate aging (approx. 1 hour) before starting calibration.

•Make the room dark so that no external light can enter the standard measurement probe before starting the calibration. If 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.

•If you are using CA-210, consult the supplier of the unit.
