ENGLISH 57 Calibration [CalMan Support] The 65EP5G supports automated color calibration using CalMan software by Portrait Displays, Inc. (purchased separately: https://www.portrait.com/calman-calibration-software/). CalMan uto-calibration adjusts the monitor's internal 1D and 3D LUTs for precise color calibration. Ensure the monitor and PC with CalMan are connected to the same local area network (LAN). Select the "Display Specific Autocal - LG" workflow in CalMan and follow CalMan's instructions to calibrate the monitor. Connecting to CalMan will require the 65EP5G's IP Address. Once the monitor is connected to LAN, navigate in the 65EP5G menu to "Advanced Network Settings" to view the IP Address. Each of the 65EP5G's 10 Profiles can be calibrated separately, in both SDR and HDR mode, by selecting the profile number in CalMan. Once a profile has been calibrated, it can be selected through the monitor's menu under "Advanced Profile". Profile selection may also be assigned to a Function Key. [Colorimeter Profiling] When a colorimeter is used to measure displays, best practice is to calibrate the colorimeter to each individual display using a more accurate device. This practice called colorimeter profiling. The typical method of colorimeter profiling uses a 3x3 correction matrix to account for errors in the colorimeter's spectral response to a display's three primary light elements. Colorimeter profiling functionality is often included in software provided with the measurement device and in display calibration software. The 65EP5G panel uses a white sub-pixel in addition to red, green, and blue sub-pixels. Because the panel has four light elements, the traditional method of colorimeter profiling using a single 3 x 3 matrix can cause large measurement errors when used with the 65EP5G. When profiling a colorimeter for the 65EP5G, an approach called the Three-Matrix Method (or "Bodner Method") should be used to achieve accurate measurements. This approach is supported in CalMan with the "Tools Meter Profiling" workflow, by selecting "Bodner Method (RGBW OLED)" for the "Generate Profile Matrix" setting on the "Create Meter Profile" page.

Calibration
[CalMan Support]
The 65EP5G supports automated color calibration using CalMan software by Portrait Displays, Inc. (purchased
separately:
). CalMan uto-calibration adjusts the monitor’s
internal 1D and 3D LUTs for precise color calibration.
Ensure the monitor and PC with CalMan are connected to the same local area network (LAN). Select the “Display
Specific
Autocal – LG” workflow in CalMan and follow CalMan’s instructions to calibrate the monitor. Connecting to
CalMan will require the 65EP5G’s IP Address. Once the monitor is connected to LAN, navigate in the 65EP5G menu to
“Advanced
Network Settings” to view the IP Address.
Each of the 65EP5G’s 10 Profiles can be calibrated separately, in both SDR and HDR mode, by selecting the profile
number in CalMan. Once a profile has been calibrated, it can be selected through the monitor’s menu under “Advanced
Profile”
. Profile selection may also be assigned to a Function Key.
[Colorimeter Profiling]
When a colorimeter is used to measure displays, best practice is to calibrate the colorimeter to each individual display
using a more accurate device. This practice called colorimeter profiling. The typical method of colorimeter profiling uses
a 3x3 correction matrix to account for errors in the colorimeter’s spectral response to a display’s three primary light
elements. Colorimeter profiling functionality is often included in software provided with the measurement device and in
display calibration software.
The 65EP5G panel uses a white sub-pixel in addition to red, green, and blue sub-pixels. Because the panel has four
light elements, the traditional method of colorimeter profiling using a single 3 x 3 matrix can cause large measurement
errors when used with the 65EP5G. When profiling a colorimeter for the 65EP5G, an approach called the Three-Matrix
