basICColor Display v5

NOW SUPPLYING VERSION 5

The 5th generation of the leading application for monitor calibration and ICC-profiling has been drastically improved in ease of use and functionality. 5 pre-defined settings can be used with a mouse-click right from the start page. This covers for most situations for which a monitor calibration is needed. Parameters for special requirements can be configured for a 6th button. This makes basICColor display the easiest to use and most professional software of its class. The optional high-end colorimeter basICColor DISCUS offers the precision and stability of a lab-grade instrument for desktop monitor calibration and profiling for the first time ever.

Hardware Calibration

basICColor display 5 calibrates the internal monitor LUTs in suited monitors automatically. This guarantees for the highest precision in luminance, black point, color temperatureand gray balance. If the monitor allows for 3D LUT calibration basICColor display 5 uses ICC-profiles to emulate any gamut and thus allows for color correct viewing even with non-color-managed applications like digital video, web design and even medical viewers.

Monitor Validation

After each calibration basICColor display 5 automatically validates the monitor. This helps avoid measurement errors (due to sleep mode or screen savers).

The new basICColor RemindMe lets you set arbitrary times for reminding you of the necessity for validation or re-calibration. basICColor display 5 can then be started right from RemindMe.

Viewing Light Calibration

basICColor display 5 checks ambient light and viewing booths for conformity with the relevant standards. Compatible viewing booths (basICColor diLIGHT, LEDlight, JUST…) can be controlled aiutomatically in order to achieve the same luminance as the calibrated monitor. Result: Softproof and hardcopy proof look identical!
