Adjusting for ambient light

You can adjust your AppleVision monitor for the lighting conditions in your
environment. You may want to create and use more than one ambient light
setting. For example, if your monitor is near a window, you might want one
setting for the morning and another for the afternoon.

Note: Adjusting for ambient light will be difficult if the monitor’s screen is in
direct sunlight.

Creating an ambient light setting

To create an ambient light setting, follow these steps:

1

Locate the ambient light tool that came with your monitor.

To create an ambient light setting, you match a color sample on your screen to
the color of the light reflected from the tool. Make sure the gray side of the
tool is facing toward you.

IMPORTANT

Do not touch the gray, circular part of the ambient light tool.

Store the tool in the envelope provided, away from direct sunlight. Otherwise,
the gray color in the tool may fade and give you incorrect ambient light
readings.
