PROGRAMMABLE: The settings can be changed to your preference by downloading the application software. You can select this when PICTURE MODE is PROGRAMMABLE.
This function electronically compensates for the slight variations in the white uniformity level as well as for deviations in color that may occur throughout the display area of the screen. These variations are characteristic of LCD panel technology. This function improves the color and evens out the luminance uniformity of the display. NOTE: Using the UNIFORMITY feature does reduce the overall peak luminance of the display.

Specifications Monitor Specifications MultiSync PA322UHD Notes LCD Module 80.1 cm/31.5 inches 80.1 cm/31.5 inches 3840 x 2160 Active matrix; thin film transistor (TFT) liquid crystal display (LCD); 0.182 mm dot pitch; 350 cd/m2 white luminance; 1000:1 contrast ratio (typical). DisplayPort Connector: Digital RGB DisplayPort Complies with Standard V1.
DisplayPort: DisplayPort is designed to be the future-ready, scalable solution for high performance digital display connectivity. It enables the highest resolutions, the fastest refresh rates and deepest color depths over standard cables. HDMI: HDMI is designed to be the future-ready, scalable solution for high performance digital display connectivity. It enables the highest resolutions, the fastest refresh rates and deepest color depths over standard cables, especially for consumer audio/video equipment.
Troubleshooting No picture • The signal cable should be completely connected to the display card/computer. • The display card should be completely seated in its slot. • The monitor does not support a DisplayPort converter signal. • The front power button and computer power switch should be in the ON position. • Check to make sure that a supported mode has been selected on the display card or system being used. (Please consult display card or system manual to change graphics mode.
• If the brightness fluctuates make sure AUTO BRIGHTNESS is turned off. • In PICTURE MODE, set HIGH BRIGHT. See page 18. • LCD brightness degradation occurs due to long-term usage or extreme cold conditions. • When the display cannot achieve the desired brightness, the numerical brightness value on the OSD will blink. • When using an HDMI input, please change “VIDEO LEVEL”. Display image is not sized properly • Use the OSD Image Adjust controls to increase or decrease the Coarse adjustment.
Using the Auto Brightness function The brightness of the LCD screen can be set to increase or decrease depending on the amount of ambient light within the room. If the room is bright, the monitor becomes correspondingly bright. If the room is dim, then the monitor will dim accordingly. The purpose of this function is to make the viewing experience more comfortable to the eye in a variety of lighting conditions. The Auto Brightness function is set to OFF by default.
Simply connect the external USB color sensor, and re-calibrate the factory settings without the need of a computer. This feature is to compensate for a yellow color shift that typically occurs with long-term LCD usage. All PICTURE MODES are updated when Self Calibration is performed. Before proper self calibration can be performed, display should warm-up for a minimum 30 minutes. If this calibration is started before the monitor is warmed up, a warning will appear on-screen (Figure S.2).
6. The procedure will ask for the USB color sensor to be placed on the center of the display panel (Figure S.3). Tilt the display panel approximately 5˚ backward and place the USB color sensor in the center of the display panel (Figure S.1). NOTE: Place the USB color sensor flat against the LCD to avoid external light contamination. DO NOT press the calibrator against the display panel. Press “SELECT” to start the calibration. Stand-alone calibration may take several minutes depending on user settings.
The white point can be copied from one display to one or more additional displays. Using this feature reduces the variation between different displays allowing them to match each other more closely. White Point Matching/Copy does not compensate for a typical yellow color shift due to long-term LCD usage. If this yellow shift is noticeable, please do Self Calibration. See page 31. NOTE: Stand-alone calibration can only be performed using the MDSVSENSOR3.
8. Press SELECT to start the confirmation of white point. 9. After the confirmation is finished, FINE TUNING MODE message appears. 10. At the FINE TUNING MODE message (Figure C.6), press SELECT if the copy result is satisfactory. If the copy result is unsatisfactory, manually fine tune the white point using the “LEFT” and “RIGHT” buttons, and press SELECT. 11. To end the calibration mode, press “EXIT”. Figure C.
