Enabling HDR function
If the instructions in Working with HDR technology on page 46 are followed and the input
content is HDR-compatible, the OSD message HDR: On is displayed on the screen. This
means your content player and content are HDR-compatible and the HDR function is
properly enabled. Depending on the input signal, the monitor detects whether it is HDR10 or
HLG content and process the content properly.
If the connection is complete and no OSD message is displayed, this means the content
player and/or the content are not HDR-compatible. The monitor stays to the color mode
recently chosen for non-HDR content.
