  Therefore, only a single file to be loaded can be copied to the USB flash drive. If it needs to update more LUT tables, please delete other files in USB flash disk and repeat the above steps.

• Power on the device, insert the corresponding video signal into any video signal interface and switch the signal to the corresponding channel to make sure the device displays normally. (It doesn’t suggest that update the LUT table when there is no input signal as the device will enter the power saving mode in such situation.)

• Insert the flash disk into the USB interface on the device and wait for about 5 seconds. It will pop-up prompt box “Load Rec709.cube” after detecting the flash disk. Operate by using press “MENU”, “＜”, “＞”, “EXIT” on the front of device. Click “YES” to load, and click “NO” or press “EXIT” to exit. The device displays a black screen after confirmed the loading, and it will update the corresponding LUT table backstage according to the name of the updated LUT.
  The device will be restarted automatically after completed. The whole updating process takes about 6 seconds according to the updated LUT name.

• Please activate and set up the updated LUT table under the menu after restart. It doesn’t need to be reset if the current updated LUT has been selected before updating.

Please note it only calibrates the color for Rec709 mode and upload it to the device in the factory. User1~User3 is grayed out and disabled in the menu. After loading the user LUT table, the corresponding button will be shown as blue and able to be use, shown as the following figure.
