Calibrating the System----cont.
After the Artisan™ Color Reference System is finished calibrating your display, you will see this screen:
1
Please carefully remove the Artisan™ Sensor from the screen's surface by tilting it slightly to one side to dislodge the
suction cups, and then pulling it away from the display screen.
2
Place the sensor into its protective case.
You may want to disconnect the sensor from the computer's USB port, roll the cable up, and place it in its holder for safe
storage. However, the sensor will need to be connected in order to restart the Artisan™ Color Reference Software.
3
After removing the sensor from the screen, the screen will display the welcome screen of the Artisan™ Color Reference
System program. The welcome screen will display the word "Calibrated" in the place of "Not Calibrated."
Once your system is calibrated to a specific colorspace, an ICC profile is automatically created for that calibration data
and is placed in a folder created by your operating system for ICC profiles. You can use ICC profiles within programs such
as Adobe Photoshop to standardize the colors of specific images. For more information, see page 23.
Notes on Maintaining a Calibrated System
Any adjustments to the GDM-C520 display that are made manually (i.e. through the GDM-C520's on-screen display) will
invalidate calibration. Therefore, once you have calibrated the display, do not make any manual adjustments to the screen.
Each Calibration Data File lasts for 30 days before the system will require a full calibration. If your calibration data is still
valid (i.e. if you have calibrated your system within the past 30 days), you can update your system's calibration instead
of performing a full recalibration on your system. This process will ensure that your system is within tolerance and will
reset the 30 day timer on your calibration data. To update your system's calibration, click on the "File" option in the
command bar at the top of your display's screen, click on "Update Calibration Data," and then continue with the
calibration process.
You can easily switch between different Calibration Data Files, provided that the calibration data is still valid. Click on the
"Load Calibration Data" dropdown menu and click on the Calibration Data File to which you wish to switch. Your display
screen will change color and luminosity as the Artisan™ Color Reference System updates to the new calibration data.
If you have already calibrated your system and your display is not set to "Professional" mode, you will need to unlock the
OSD, set it to "Professional" mode, and recalibrate your system. To unlock the OSD, press the display's Menu button. Then,
press the Control button twice and select "Off". To set the display to "Professional" mode, press the display's Picture Effect
button until the OSD shows "Professional". Then, recalibrate your system to all necessary calibrations.
