The gamma slider can be used to set the desired gamma of the display. This
value can also be seen in the text field on the right of the gamma slider. The
luminance of the gray point changes by definition when the gamma changes.
Note that the gamma slider is disabled when the mid grey point is defined by the
user (when the ‘Follow white point and gamma’ is unchecked). The user defined
luminance of the mid grey point now defines by definition also the gamma. The
text field of the gamma value will color red if the resulting gamma is out of the
slider’s range. So, the mid grey luminance is in function of the desired gamma or
the gamma is in function of the desired mid grey luminance.
Brightness
The brightness of a display is the maximum luminance of full white. The slider
allows the user to set the desired brightness. Values between 25 and 250 cd/m2
in steps of 5 can be chosen for almost all displays exept for NSL-4601 displays,
where the brightness can be set from 100 to maximum 650 cd/m² in steps of
10. The text field on the right shows the desired brightness. If the desired
brightness cannot be reached because of the limitations of the display, the
calibration routine will continue with the closest match but will report a failed
calibration at the end of the routine.
Status field
The Status field has 4 possible states:
No display has been connected
Unknown Calibration History Display
CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL Display was calibrated successfully
CALIBRATION FAILED Display calibration failed, target settings were
out of range or calibration was interrupted
