    Calibration report

    Attached is a copy of my last calibration.
    If I remember correctly the Color was plus 5-10 from center when I was finished.

    hi guys
    More info…
    Use the THX mode…it will give you an accurate color gamut for rec 709.
    Then enter the service mode to tweek the gray scale.
    To enter the SM:
    up down right left enter
    the above can be done from the remote control.
    the above needs to be done very quickly and you may have to attempt it 10-20 times.
    Gary at JVC is looking into getting us a macro to make this easier.

    hi guys
    Ray, thanks for moving.
    Once here for about a week or so (and all parties have read it) it is good to move it to the Service area.

    it is very full featured.

    I have not tried it yet….i have a 150 tonight but do not know if the client will be home to assist me with accessing the rs232 port.

    yup…thanks Ray!!

    My copy is now fully functional…though I have not attempted to use it on a display yet.

    hi
    I tried this on a 151…only gave access to the front panel controls and white balance controls, nothing else (CMS, Color Space preset etc).
    As is, this program is essentially useless.

    hi David
    It should also have white balance controls available.
    I have never worked on this unit. Please keep us posted.

    hi John

    A good question for Dr Rudd too….Id love to have his input.

    Basically when asking about the “intensity” of the primaries at a variety of stimulus points you are correctly talking about primary gamma (vs gray scale gamma).

    A good test for color decoding is measuring primary intensity at 100% stimulus then comparing it to primary intensity at 75% stimulus. If it is not in the same proportions then there is a color decoder error (which may or may not be further correctable). This is essentially measuring primary gamma response (in the color decoder).

    We teach to do CMS adjustments at 75% stimulus as this is closer to the percentage of stimulus of an APL (average picture level), and thus best represents an average picture.

    Hope this helped ??

    unless the display has mode presets (with perhaps different gamma settings), or gamma presets, or multiple point gray scale adjustments (pull all RGB down in the middle adjustments) then the gamma will be what it is.

    A lower number may be favorable in a room with ambient lighting.

    Good luck!!

    hi
    I got an email back from Mike Wood. He says “I dont think so”…that is why the diagram is given…so you can make your own.

    the back light adjustment (there is also an auto mechanism) might also be able to be manipulated to increase the gamma.

    HI
    I will also let Michael chime in here.
    Did you use the 6×3 point system to adjust the gray scale? If so….you can pull down some of the center points to increase the gamma curve.
    Use the ColorFacts gamma calculator, or the gamma calculator that is built into CalMan.
