Independent Source Mode Calibration
Calibrate 1D LUT & Color Matrix, or
Calibrate RGB Gains & Color Matrix
Follow this procedure to automatically create and load an optimized 1D LUT monitor calibration file (or
adjust RGB Gains) and adjust the color matrix for an Eizo monitor that is normally connected to an
independent signal source, such as a signal router or video adapter device (not directly connected to a
computer’s standard graphics adapter output).
To instead create a 3D LUT file, click the following link to jump to the 3D LUT Calibration section, above.
Note: If you have already calibrated the Eizo monitor with a 3D LUT, the monitor calibration is complete.
You should not attempt to also create a 1D LUT for the monitor.
SI Advanced Calibration Workflow
The SI Advanced Calibration workflow in CalMAN is used to automatically
create a 1D display calibration LUT, adjust the color matrix, and create an
ICC profile. To open this CalMAN workflow, in the main menu select Open
Workflow Template / SI Advanced Calibration. Proceed through the
instruction in each step of the SI Advanced Calibration workflow, using the
following notes for Eizo monitor specifics.
1. Base Settings section
In the Base Settings section of the SI Advanced Calibration workflow, step
through the following pages to prepare for automatic monitor calibration:
a. Hardware Connect
Follow the instructions on the Hardware Connect page to connect
to your meter and to connect to your Eizo display, both as a test
pattern source and for display control. If you haven’t already done so, connect the Eizo display
to the host calibration computer with a USB cable, as detailed in the initial setup section above.
Meter - For monitors without a supported built-in meter, connect your external color meter to
the CalMAN computer.
On the Meter Connect page, click the Find Meter button. On the Find Meters dialog, select either
your Eizo display meter, or your externally connected meter if it is listed, then click Search. If
your external color meter is not listed on the Find Meters dialog, just click Search.
Under the Target Display Type drop down, if the Eizo monitor has wide color gamut that
“reproduces 97% of Adobe RGB color space,” select “LCD (LED Wide Gamut).” If the monitor is
not wide gamut, select “LCD (LED).”
Source – For Eizo monitors that provide internal test patterns, on the Source Connect page, click
the Find Source button. On the Source dialog, under Manufacturer, select “Eizo.” Under Model,
select “Eizo – ColorEdge monitors.”
