Safety Precautions
Prolonged display of static content, overlays, OSD menu, or scopes, may cause
image retention or burn-in.
When possible you should avoid displaying static content, especially in HDR mode,
for longer than necessary.
To automatically lessen the potential severity of image retention or burn-in the
display has an optional auto-dimming capability that will allow the panel to dim if
static content is detected. The display will return to normal operating luminance
when the image is refreshed (see Panel Dimming section of manual for details).
Panel dimming can be turned off, but additional caution should be exercised if panel
dimming is disabled.
A clear panel noise capability is also provided that can help restore panel performance
in most scenarios, but when possible care should be taken to avoid prolonged static
conditions that may cause premature aging or panel damage

Saved prole congurations can be loaded via a function button. This acts as a “load” button only as
opposed to a toggle, so pressing a corresponding Load Prole Function button twice does not revert to
previous pre-load state.
The most common use for saving proles and assigning them to a function button is to allow for single
button access to different congurations for various HDR and SDR workows. For example, you
could set one prole to load a 2020, PQ, Full Range, 6500K conguration, another to load a Rec709,
Gamma 2.4, Video Range, 6500K conguration, and yet another to load a P3, Gamma 2.6, Full Range,
6300K-DCI conguration. Proles can be a great convenience and a huge time saver if you frequently
switch between different types of monitoring congurations.
Proles 1 - 5 are user adjustable via the Prole Save command found on the System Menu. Simply set
all monitor settings to your liking, then from the System Menu select Prole Save, pick the Conguration
memory slot where your settings will be saved, and Enter to conrm. Prole 0 is the Factory Default
Conguration.
If loading proles via a function button assignment be aware that any menu / sub-menu you are actively
viewing will not reect its new settings until you exit and reenter that menu. For example, if you are
viewing the Color Menu and have the monitor set to Rec709 gamut, then press a function button to load
a prole you have assigned with a P3 gamut, the Color menu will not reect that gamut change until
you exit and reenter the Color menu. The actual settings do take effect immediately, but menus must
be refreshed by exiting / reentering the menu before reecting any function button activated change.
Please note: loading prole congurations does NOT change function button assignments.
The function buttons are independent of the prole congurations. See Save Prole and Load
Prole sections in the System Menu portion of this manual for more details.

Note: When using the 3rd Party Color System option from the Color Menu instead of the default
GaiaColor Color System, the scopes will be limited to use in Normal LUT Mode only. Scopes will
not operate while in 3rd Party -> Advanced LUT Mode.
Lum Coloring (Customizable Exposure Check)
Generates an articial luminance map of the incoming source that can be particularly useful in identifying
overexposed areas in any given shot. An onscreen scale helps indicate what articial color corresponds
to what luminance from 0 to 100 percent. You can change the range of these color coded regions to
any preferred setting by using the monitor’s rotary knobs, leaving the range outside of the color coded
region as a greyscale representation of the signal. This can be useful in targeting a specic luminance
threshold to be shown in color and/or isolated in greyscale. The H POS rotary knob will adjust the lower
limit of the lower color coded region. The V POS rotary knob will adjust the upper limit of the lower color
coded region. The Ref POS rotary knob will adjust the lower limit of the upper color coded region. The F
Stop Rotary knob will adjust the upper limit of the upper color coded region. These color coded ranges
are retained in memory so you can exit and reenter Lum Coloring Mode without having to reset your
desired threshold levels. The LUM Coloring feature can be assigned and activated / deactivated via an
assigned function button for faster access.

Can be manually set to select the type of incoming signal format. When set to AUTO the monitor will
attempt to read the signal’s Payload ID, but if Payload ID is missing or incorrect this manual toggle can
be used to set the monitor to a conguration that matches the signal formatting.
Mode
The mode selection allows you to set the SDI input conguration as well as the processed monitor
output conguration. Please note that the output conguration only impacts the outputs labeled MON,
the standard OUT connections are always clean loop throughs of whatever is being received by the
display. Note that when using a down-conversion conguration UHD will be down-converted to HD and
4K will be down-converted to 2K. All 2K and HD down-converted signals will be output to all 4 MON
outputs so the down-conversion may be accessed from any of these connections.
Available MODE options
AUTO: attempts to automatically identify signal type, particularly useful if simply switching between
single-link 1.5Gbps, 3Gbps, 6Gbps, and 12Gbps SDI signals formats.
6G_IN: single-link 6Gbps SDI input, single-link 6Gbps SDI output

ColorSystem
The monitor features 2 Color System selections: GaiaColor and 3rd Party. GaiaColor is the default
selection and what you should use unless you are specically utilizing 3rd Party calibration software to
build 3rd Party calibration LUTs.
Within the GaiaColor Color System you will nd all the available Gamut, EOTF, Correlated Color
Temperature, and Luminance options supported by the monitor. Any selection made within the GaiaColor
mode activates a calibrated monitor state instantaneously, without having to reprole the display, based
on the last volumetric prole data saved to the monitor’s non-volatile memory state during the AutoCal
process.
Please leave the ColorSystem set to GaiaColor unless you have specically saved your own user
generated calibration LUTs to one of the 3rd Party Color System’s memory slots from compatible 3rd
party calibration software. An additional option labeled NONE is also listed, but generally should not be
used as this simply turns off all calibrations.
Note: when in 3rd Party mode only the Range selection will remain similarly adjustable to GaiaColor
mode. Gamut, EOTF, Luminance Mode, and Temperature will all be deactivated and will not be selectable
in 3rd Party mode as these parameters are all instead governed by the 3rd Party USER LUTs directly
when using 3rd Party mode.
Range
Video Range 64-940
Extended Video Range 64-1019
SMPTE Full Range 4-1019
Full Range 0-1023
Sets the desired signal range conguration for the monitor. Set this match to match your output system.
Note: for PQ signals the listed lower and upper values (10bit) represent the min/max code values used to
calculate the PQ EOTF. For example, in the SMPTE Full Range 4-1019 selection 10bit RGB code value
4 will have a target of 0 nits whereas in the Full Range 0-1023 selection 0 nits is instead ostensibly the
target for code value 0 even though this value may be reserved over the wire on some SDI connections.
The difference between SMPTE Full and Full Range is very subtle and provided simply to offer the most
accurate match between the output system’s expected behavior and the monitor.

Panel Dimming
When panel dimming is set to On the panel will automatically begin to dim after 45 seconds of static
content to help automatically protect the panel from image retention. Panel dimming can also be set
to Off to disable this behavior and this may be particularly useful during calibration routines, grading
sessions, and other scenarios where static images may routinely need to be critically evaluated for more
than 45 seconds at a time. When set to Off extra care should be taken not to leave static images on
screen longer than actually required. Static display of content for many minutes at a time is unlikely to
cause any permanent damage, but don’t be the person that leaves their 1000nit high contrast company
logo displayed on screen before heading out on an extended holiday...your panel and your wallet may
not be happy upon your return.

Menu & Status Position

Menu Set

Status Set - Signal Status ID window
Select from On, Off, or 5 second display. When set to 5 second display the monitor will display signal
status ID window for 5 seconds whenever an input button is pressed or signal format is changed.
The rst line of the signal status ID window shows the user selected primary input and video mode
(default is Auto).
The second line shows the primary input’s detected bandwidth (e.g. 12G), resolution (e.g. 3840x2160),
and scan type (e.g PsF). Please note that if your video mode is set to something besides a single wire
format (e.g. Quad Link SDI) this second line will only show the detected bandwidth and resolution of
the primary (selected) input. A quad link SDI UHD signal will therefore only indicate the resolution of the
primary quadrant (HD) whereas a single 12G-SDI UHD signal will show 3840x2160 resolution.
The third line indicates the frame rate, whether the signal is RGB or YCbCr, and the signal bit depth.
Please note that this information is based on received VPID. If VPID is incorrect or missing you may
manually override using the Video Menu’s SDI format selection, but this line will continue to reect
signal type as indicated by VPID.
