2. Display Pre-Test

In the Display Pre-Test section of the Color Cube workflow, on the Test/Document Display and Check
Linearity
pages, you can measure the performance of a display before you calibrate it. On the Display
Performance Test page, the previous display measurements are evaluated in a series of pass/fail
performance parameters.

If the display fails in any of these parameters, you should consider using the following Display
Optimization
workflow section to optimize adjustments on the display itself.

If the display passes all of these parameters, you can skip the Display Optimization section and go
immediately to the Display Calibration workflow section.

3. Display Optimization

In the Display Optimization section of the Color Cube workflow, you are guided to optimize display
settings for picture mode, color gamut, color temp, gamma, dynamic range, white point balance, and
white point luminance.

4. Display Calibration

In the Display Calibration section of the Color Cube workflow, there are provisions for calibrating both a
1D LUT (1D Ramp LUT page) and a 3D LUT (3D Cube LUT page). When we are using the CalMAN Cube
Generator function to produce a 3D LUT file, we will skip the 1D LUT page and use only the 3D Cube LUT
page.

a. 1D Ramp LUT

Skip over this page when using the CalMAN Cube Generator function to produce a 3D LUT file.

b. 3D Cube LUT

1. On the 3D Cube LUT page, click the AutoCal (circling arrows) button at the right end of the

meter action buttons. The AutoCal Setup dialog then appears (see below).
