Gamma Correction Adjustment
: Adjust the monitor's
gamma correction for optimal brightness with the red,
green and blue slider bars.
When these sliders are changed the gamma correction
table modifies each pixel's color value.
The brightness produced at the face of the display is
proportional to the input voltage raised to the power
gamma. This nonlinearity must be compensated to achieve
correct reproduction of the image's brightness. The effect
of display gamma is to darken the midtones relative to the
dark and light regions. The gamma correction adjustment
affects the entire screen display. The possible setting range
is 0.3 - 4.0. The default setting is 1.0.
With
Link sliders
selected, the three sliders move
together as you drag any individual slider. With the check
box unchecked, you can adjust colors individually by
dragging the applicable slider.
Click the
>1<
button - for each color - to set the gamma
correction to the default value of 1.0.
