INTRODUCTION
The KODAK Display Manager System lets you display a scanned negative
image as it will appear projected via a motion picture film projector or a video
image as it will appear on a broadcast monitor. The KODAK Display Manager
System interfaces with a number of displays including computer monitors,
HD/SD displays, and digital projectors.
When creating a print film look, the system emulates the photochemical
process of motion picture print film. The results are placed in a 3D LUT (three
dimensional Look Up Table). This LUT can be exported and used by
supported imaging applications during the post production process.
When creating a video look, the system emulates a broadcast video display.
Before emulating a look, you must first calibrate and characterize your display.
We recommend that you calibrate and characterize your display:
• Before the start of a new project
• If the computer goes into sleep mode or screen saver mode
• Whenever you turn on the computer or display
• If the display has been jarred or moved
• (CRT/LCD monitors) Roughly every 6 to 8 hours; a minimum of once a day
• (HD/SD video) Once a day
• (Digital projectors) Once a week

How it Works
To accurately generate a 3D LUT, you must work from a calibrated and
characterized display. A sensor, which you position on your display, measures
the luminance and chromaticities of a series of color patches. You can also
use the sensor to verify the calibration and characterization.
NOTE
To characterize a projector you must use a spectrophotometer or a colorimeter
suitable for measuring screen reflectance.
Calibration
The automatic calibration process gathers information from a sensor and
transfers it to the monitor via the enable cable (USB Cable ECC 1).
Adjustments are automatically made to the monitor contrast, brightness, and
individual RGB biases and gains via the enable cable, based on information
gathered by the sensor.
The first time that you initiate automatic calibration, the system prompts you to
perform a monitor evaluation to determine if your monitor is capable of being
automatically calibrated.
Introduction
When calibrating an HD/SD device, you must manually calibrate the device
using standard SMPTE procedures. A colorbars target is supplied with the
Display Manager System.
Manually calibrate your display to SMPTE standards if:
• You are using an IRIX system
• You have an HD/SD device
• The enable cable does not recognize your monitor
• You were unable to successfully calibrate your monitor using automatic
calibration
Characterization
After you have calibrated your display, you must characterize it to determine
the gamma response and to track the primaries. The result is a .chr file, which
the system uses to create a 3D LUT.
HD/SD displays and digital projectors must be characterized using the Manual
Characterization Assistant. When characterizing these types of displays, you
can project display patches provided on the Display Manager System CD
through a supported imaging application (or you can display patches from one
of the KODAK color patch set video tapes available from Kodak).
KODAK Display Manager System V4.0 User’s Guide 3
Introduction
Viewing and Customizing a Look
Verification
From the Display Manager System Viewer, you can view images and apply a
transform, which can be either a .chr file or a 3D LUT. With a properly
calibrated and characterized monitor, images will closely match a projected
print film image or broadcast image.
Perform a verification to measure the quality of the monitor setup and to
measure the closeness of the print film match in CIElab colorspace.
NOTE
Verification is not available for HD/SD displays and digital projectors.

Main Window
The main window contains a selection box for the Display Mode and an icon
for each step in the process.
Introduction
Display Mode: Select Auto if you will be
using the enable cable to calibrate. If not,
it is important that you select Manual.
Calibrate: Opens the Calibration window
where you attach a sensor to measure the
luminance and chromaticity of a series of
color patches.
Characterize: Opens the Characterization
window where you attach a sensor to
measure the luminance and chromaticity of
a series of color patches. Choose Manual
Characterization Assistant to
characterize alternate display devices, such
as HD/SD displays and digital projectors.
Viewer: Opens the Viewer where you load
and view images, customize looks, and
build and export 3D LUTs.
Verify: Opens the Verification window
where you attach a sensor and verify the
quality of the monitor setup and the print
simulation.
Exit: Closes the application.
From the Options menu, select Setup to set the parameters and configure
the system. See “Setting the Options” on page 22.
From the File menu, load your settings, save your settings or reset to the
factory default settings. See “
Saving and Loading Settings” on page 28.

Introduction
Supported Hardware
The following hardware is recommended for use with the Display Manager
System.
Generic Monitor Support
The Display Manager System supports many different monitors but not all
monitors can be automatically calibrated by the system. Most high-quality
professional grade monitors can be calibrated.
The first time that you initiate an automatic calibration, you are prompted to
attach a sensor to the monitor so that the system can assess if the monitor
can be automatically calibrated.
NOTE
Before running this evaluation, set your monitor to Expert mode and turn off the
Super Bright mode if applicable.
You are then notified if the monitor can be automatically calibrated. If it cannot,
you can manually adjust your monitor using SMPTE standard procedures and
the supplied colorbars chart. For more information, see “
on page 34.
Manual Calibration”
This evaluation runs whenever you attach a monitor that was not previously
tested with the system and then initiate automatic calibration.
Supported Displays
In addition to displays that can be automatically calibrated, you can use the
Display Manager System with LCD monitors, HD/SD displays, and digital
projectors. We recommend cinema grade digital projectors.
Enable Cable (USB Cable ECC 1)
An enable cable is required to transfer data from your monitor to your
computer. This cable can be obtained through Kodak. Contact your service
representative. See “
Supported Spectrophotometers” on page 8.
