ColourSpace can be integrated with select TVlogic monitors for accurate display calibration.
- ColourSpace INF/XPT/PRO/CAL
- Closed Loop Profiling
- 3D LUTs
- TPG Operation
The following old TVlogic models are ColourSpace Integrated:
- XVM-245W-N, XVM-175W, XVM-325W, XVM-177A, LEM-250A, LUM-310A, LUM-240G, and LUM-171G
ColourSpace Integration
TVlogic calibration is controlled via the Hardware Options menu, accessed via the Profiling window.
Initial Setup
- If required, make sure the correct drivers are installed
(If necessary, verify via Windows Device Manager) - Connect the TVlogic monitor to the ColourSpace laptop via a USB connection, as well as a direct video connection with valid signal, and start ColourSpace
- Set the desired set-up options via the Settings menu, as required
- Open a ColourSpace Profiling window, select Hardware Options, and select TVlogic from the Hardware drop-down list
- Select the correct Serial Port for connection, and select Connect
- To make sure there is no existing calibration data active within the selected Profile/Load/LUT/Slot, and associated colour space selection, etc., select Unity Bypass from the ColourSpace Settings option, and press Upload
Potentially, when Unity Bypass data is Uploaded all monitor settings will be nullified. Should it be desired that different LUTs and other settings remain as defined, upload a the Default Unity LUT, which uploads just the LUT, and does not reset any additional settings. Set necessary settings, such as Brightness/Contrast/Black-Level, before any LUT Upload.
Profiling Operation
While TVlogic monitors can be calibrated using ColourSpace via a LUT upload, the actual profiling must be performed via a an external patch generator.
- Open a second ColourSpace Profiling window, select Hardware Options, and select the required TPG from the Hardware drop-down list
(Refer to the relevant TPG User Guide for further operational information) - The probe must be connected to the same Profiling Window as the TPG
Any patch generator can be used for SDR profiling, including direct HDMI/DVI/DisplayPort connection from the ColourSpace laptop, with HDMI to SDI converter if required. For HDR/HLG/Dolby Vision, if applicable, correct metadata may be required within the video signal, requiring a dedicate TPG or metadata injector, unless the display can be manually forced into the required input format.
LUT Upload
After profiling, a Calibration LUT can be generated as normal within ColourSpace LUT Tools.
With the LUT still held within ColourSpace navigate back to the Hardware Options menu, and select the desired LUT from within the Select LUT options, and Upload.
