Choose a display next to the baseline display and adjust its white values (red,
green and blue) to make it match the baseline display. Concentrate on the center
of the displays, not the adjacent edges. (If you can’t bring these settings down to
match the baseline, maybe you didn’t choose the darkest display.) Do not adjust
the gray values at this time.

7

Continue with other adjacent displays until all the displays have the same
appearance when white. Be careful not to change the values of displays once you
are satisfied with them. Select

HIDE

MENU

to keep from setting other displays and

allow you to see more of the white field. To unhide the menu, press

ENTER

.

Note:

The menus will automatically turn off after a time determined in

When all displays look the same when displaying the White test pattern, choose
the Gray test pattern in all displays.

9

Choose any display as the new baseline display. It does not need to be the
baseline display you used for white.

10

Adjust the gray values for all the displays until they match the baseline display.
Do one display at a time. Again, match the center part of the picture, not the
edges.

11

When all displays match in gray, close all the menus. The test pattern
automatically turns off.
