Setup ColorNavigator

Turn on both the monitor and the computer 30 minutes before monitor
adjustment (= warming up)
Disable the power management function of them so they will not be in the power save mode.
Quit other applications before starting up the ColorNavigator. Disable the screen saver so that it
will not be activated during adjustment or measurement.
Note
• To obtain precise monitor adjustment results, the monitor and computer must be sufficiently
warmed-up. Once the monitor goes into the power-save mode, it takes a while for the brightness
and color conditions to re-stabilize.

Set the display resolution and colors
Set the monitor color at 16.7 million (24 bit) or more.
It is recommended that the resolution is 1024 x 768 or higher.
