DM220 and DM160 OLED Quick Start Guide
The DM220 and DM160 OLED Monitors are high-end professional monitors designed for color-critical applications. These monitors offer true blacks, accurate colors, and wide viewing angles. The following are some tips to get you up and running quickly:
- Connect the power cable to the monitor and plug it into a power outlet.
- Connect the video source to the monitor using an HDMI, SDI, or DisplayPort cable.
- Press the power button to turn on the monitor.
- Use the joystick on the back of the monitor to navigate the menu and adjust settings such as brightness, contrast, and color temperature.
- For more advanced settings and calibration options, please refer to the full user manual.

Here are some tips to get you up and running quickly with your DM220 and DM160
OLED Monitor.
Color Matching Function (CMF)
Your monitor can switch between a standard CIE 1931 CMF based calibration and a Judd Modified CMF based calibration. You have the flexibility to use your monitor in either CMF mode and you can quickly and easily change from one to the other from the Color Management Menu by setting the Color Matching selection accordingly. While the majority of calibration systems, standards, and equipment traditionally use the CIE 1931 CMF it has become very common practice to use the Judd Modified CMF with OLED monitors to obtain better perceptual matching to other display technologies.
Color Management Selections
All DM220 and DM160 are run through an individual Auto Cal process at the factory that saves a volumetric assessment of the panel’s native response that is then used to generate and save calibration LUTs on demand for any Color Gamut, Gamma, and Color Temperature combination you select from the Monitor’s Color Management Menu. The first time you make a new unique selection the monitor will take approximately 10 seconds to generate and store the new LUT. Once that LUT is created and stored to memory you will be able to switch to that selection again in the future without having to wait 10 seconds as the LUT will not need to be regenerated until a new Auto Cal process is run.
Monitor Outputs vs. Standard Outputs
The monitor comes equipped with a dedicated clean loop through for each SDI
input. In addition to these standard loop through connections the DM220 and
DM160 also features two outputs labeled MON Out. These are processed outputs
that will follow the actively selected input and mirror any applied Look/DIT
LUTs in real-time. These outputs will also follow any image flip selections
made on the monitor. If monitoring Display Port or DVI the MON outputs will
cross convert from the active DP/DVI signal to SDI provided that the incoming
DP/DVI signal is a standard SDI supported video resolution and framerate (e.g.
1920x1080p30).
