Master
and optimize the display color. The calibration result will be saved and applied
immediately. Visit www.BenQ.com for software download and more information (Palette
Master How-to-Use Guide).

Adjusting color temperature automatically
Your monitor comes with a color temperature sensor, which detects the light condition around
the monitor and adjusts the color settings accordingly. This is to help keep the similar display
color in different light conditions.
The color temperature sensor needs to be activated and managed by the Color Display Clone
software in Calibration 1 or Calibration 2 mode.
1. Go to Color Adjustment > Color Mode and set the monitor to Calibration 1 or Calibra-
tion 2
.
2. Download the software and its user guide from www.BenQ.com.
3. Install the software and launch it to activate the sensor.
Adjusting the backlight
To adjust the backlight of the monitor, you can do one of the following:
• Enable the light sensor of the monitor to adjust the backlight automatically. See Eye Protect
on page 42 for more information
• Change the backlight manually from Color Adjustment > Brightness. See Brightness on
page 39 for more information.
Enabling GamutDuo in PBP mode
You can use Picture-by-Picture (PBP) function if there are video signals from 2 input sources.

1. Establish cable connections between the monitor and 2 video sources appropriately.
2. While the monitor is powered on, turn on the PBP function from PIP/PBP > Mode.
3. Go to Display > Input and select one input for the main window.
