Advanced Options
When you connect a third-party monitor or unsupported display to
your system, you see that the Dome CXtra software labels it
“unknown” and “not” characterized in the DICal Panel Configuration
dialog. The DICal service needs to characterize or recognize a display
before it performs calibration.
When the third-party monitor or unsupported display lacks a
characterization data file, run the characterization wizard, then save
the panel type with a unique name. After you generate the data file,
you can export it to other systems to characterize identical displays.
Characterizing a Display
Run the Characterization wizard from one of two locations:
• Open the Dome CXtra Services menu and select DICal Calibration >
Characterization Wizard.
• Open the Dome CXtra Services menu and select DICal Panel
Configuration. Highlight the display and click Characterize.
NOTE: The number of measurements you can take ranges from 0 to
256. At a minimum, run the default of 64 measurements.
Exporting Characterization Data
Open the Dome CXtra Services menu. Select DICal Calibration >
Export characterization data.
