Auto Calibration

  • The monitor has built-in 3DLUT colour calibration software, which supports Atheros X-rite 11 Pro OEM and JETI Specobosl211 colour probes directly connected to the monitor via USB.
  • When calibration starts, the colour probe will read the standard colour graphics generated by the monitor and load the results to the monitor via the USB port.
  • The monitor internally compares the standard colours with the colours read by the probe to generate a 3DLUT table and complete the automatic colour calibration.
  • Calibration time: X-rite 11: 15 minutes, JETI Specobosl211: 45 minutes.
  • Calibration result Delta E <1.0.

Probe Select
This monitor supports the following probes models:
