- MONITOR CALIBRATION -
The following instructions will help you set
your black level and brightness for best viewing on a CRT monitor.
If possible, make sure your room/ambient lighting
is dimmer than your monitor.
Set your display color depth to the maximum
setting.
Turn the monitor contrast control all the way
up.
Now adjust the brightness to see as many distinct
vertical bars as possible in the graphic below while keeping the
surround black. Keep scrolling down for the next step.
Next, adjust the contrast back down so that
the white in the graphic below is just bright enough to appear
clean and white. If the white is set too bright it will reduce
the appearance of highlight detail and cause eye strain. You should
be able to see 10 or 11 horizontal bars in the graphic below.
If you can see the 11th at the top, it should be barely visible.
