5.3.6.1 Gamma Correction
The Gamma correction factor can be set to 2.2, 1.9, 2.5, and user.
Gamma is the relationship between the color values of the data and the color values displayed e.g. on a screen.
The Gamma coefficient makes it possible to adjust the brightness of the midtones only without affecting the very
bright and very dark areas..
If gamma is set too high, middle tones appear too dark. If it's set too low, middle tones appear too light.
Using Barco’s DCMS software (display consistency management software), the monitor can be calibrated and the
calibrated setting (look-up table, LUT) can be saved in the monitor. The gamma setting "user" activates the last
calibrated value.

(more blue) light.
