3.3 Key components
3.3.1 Calibration system
Calibration with internal test pattern generation (without disconnecting
the display from its source)
The calibration can be done without disconnecting the display. In this case, a
laptop or desktop PC is needed to run the DCMS software. This laptop/PC needs
to be connected to the RS232 service port of the display. The USB color sensor
should be connected to the laptop/PC. The internal test pattern generator of the
display is used to create the colored fields needed for the calibration.

Calibration with external computer graphics (by using the input source
as calibration system)
Another way of setting up the calibration system is by using the input source as
calibration system. The computer is connected to the display via RS232 and the
color sensor is connected via USB. In this scenario, the colored test fields are
generated as computer graphics.
For this, the display needs to be connected through DVI and driven at native
resolution at 24 bits per pixel color depth.

There is no difference in calibration results between the two calibration systems.
