Quick Start Guide
Lumagen Radiance
The Lumagen Radiance™ processors dramatically improve any display’s picture quality, with superior,

SMPTE video level signals. The Radiance XD, Mini, XE, and XS provide a 125 point 5x5x5 LUT. The
Radiance 20xx series provide a 729 point 9x9x9 LUT. The Radiance 21xx series provide a 4913 point
17x17x17 LUT.
