CalMAN Software 3D LUT Setup
Follow this procedure to produce a display calibration 3D LUT file with CalMAN and load that file into a
number of video and image editing software programs.
Open CalMAN Color Cube Workflow
The Color Cube workflow in CalMAN version 5.1 or later is used to create
display calibration 3D cube LUTs. In the CalMAN main menu, select Open
Workflow Template / Color Cube (3D LUT).
1. Initial Setup
In the Initial Setup section of the Color Cube workflow, step through the
following pages:
a. Session Setup - Meter Connect
Connect your color meter to the CalMAN computer. Then, on the
Session Setup page, click the Find Meter button. On the Find Meters
dialog, select your meter, if it is listed, then click Search. If your meter is
not listed on the dialog, just click Search.
b. Session Setup - Source Connect
Connect your test pattern generator to the CalMAN computer. Then, on
the Session Setup page, click the Find Source button. On the Source
dialog, under Manufacturer, select the manufacturer of your test
pattern source. Under Model, select the model of your test pattern source.
c. Session Setup - LUT Device Setup
On the Session Setup page, click the Find 3D LUT Device button. Since you want to generate a LUT to
a standalone file, rather than within a hardware LUT processor, you will use the SpectraCal Cube
Generator software 3D LUT generator device. On the Display dialog, under Manufacturer, select
SpectraCal. Under Model, select SpectraCal – Cube Generator (3D LUT).
