When used with the SpectraView software, NEC display monitors store all of the necessary color adjustments internally, including the 10 or 12 bit Look Up Tables. The ColorSync utility switches the display color settings by changing the Look Up Tables in the video graphics adapter. The ColorSync profiles generated by SpectraView contain linear Look Up Tables for the video graphics adapter. Therefore the SpectraView software must be used to update the display monitor.
