Chapter 1 Introduction
G-Ignition is software for adjusting a monitor from a computer through a USB interface using a mouse and keyboard.
1-1. Features
Hot Key Settings
●
Functions of the monitor can be registered to keys on the keyboard. When using the software in a
multi-monitor environment, batch registration is possible if the monitors are the same model.
Color Adjustment
●
The monitor’s color adjustment function can be controlled from the software. The adjustment values can also
be exchanged with other computers by using the adjustment value import/export function.
This means that a group of people playing the same game can share adjustment values.
Auto Color Function
●
By registering color modes for individual applications, the color mode of the monitor can be switched
automatically for each application.
Note: Example of use
• If a color mode is adjusted to be dedicated to a specic application, and that color mode is registered for the application
using the Auto Color function, the dedicated monitor settings are selected when the application is started up.
Auto-applied Color Prole
●
When G-Ignition is started, a color prole (temperature 6500 K, gamma 2.2) suitable for the monitor in use is
automatically applied. Color matching can be optimized when the color mode of the monitor is set as “Web/
sRGB” (FS2434) or “Web” (FG2421).
