RS-232 SERIAL CONTROL

#GAMMA Function

The #GAMMA function sets the gamma correction mode. 

Syntax:

#GAMMA param1 param2

Parameters:

param1  

 

Gamma correction mode   

[0 - 3]

Value

Meaning

0

Default

1

sRGB

2

Custom

3

User table

param2  

 

Mode 

   [see 

below]

Value

Meaning

3 - 30

Set for Custom mode

1

Set for User table

Notes:

If the Custom mode is used, then set the gamma coef

fi

 cient value in the second 

parameter.  If User Table is used, then set the second parameter to 1 to set the 
user table currently saved in EEPROM memory. To write a new gamma LUT 
(Look-Up Table) 

fi

 le, you must use the updater with the following command:

updater %comport% GAMMA [fi lename].csv

If the Default or sRGB modes are used, then set the second parameter to zero.  
See page 43 for details on using a Gamma LUT.
