6.2.4. White Point Adjustment
The value of the White Point Temperature determines the actual
color of white.
IMPORTANT INFO:
Some monitors do not offer individual
R, G, B settings. If your monitor does not offer these settings,
check to see if your monitor’s OSD settings let you choose a
color temperature.
During this phase of the calibration process, the LaCie blue eye
colorimeter constantly measures the colorimetric characteris-
tics of white as displayed by your monitor. To reach your target
White Point Temperature, you will adjust the relative quantities
of Red, Green and Blue used by the monitor to create white. To
do this, you will sequentially increase or decrease the R, G, and
B gain settings of your monitor, using the OSD.
1. Press the
Start
button.
2. Identify which of the settings need to be decreased by look-
ing at the three sliders. The slider that needs to be will be the
setting whose slider is furthest away from the center. Reduce
or increase this setting’s gain by decreasing gain using your
monitor’s OSD. The corresponding slider should move to the
center towards the green area. When it reaches this green
area, this setting is correct.
3. Repeat the above steps on the next two sliders until all of the
R, G, and B sliders have reached the green area. Monitor’s
RGB gains are now set according to your target White Point
Temperature.
Once the White Point Temperature has been set, click on the
Next
button to continue onto the last step.
