| With the Calibration tab, you can create an icc profile with the settings you configure. You can also create an icc profile with adjustments of the maximum brightness, black level, gamma, and white point, except for the color bands. All created icc profiles are saved in the "C:WINDOWS\system32\spool\drivers\color" folder. You can also use an icc profile as the monitor profile in a CMS program such as Photoshop. In addition, you can save the settings in this tab as the calibration mode which constitutes a part of the color mode of your monitor. Once saved, you can easily select the saved set of settings using the Mode button.However, you can only save one set of settings for the calibration mode of your monitor. That is,only the most recently saved set of settings is available and valid. |
