Panasonic VT25 (US) Plasma

CalMAN Setup Guide

CalMAN automatically calibrates the Panasonic VT25 US model display’s two point grayscale controls.

The display’s two custom picture modes, ISF Day and ISF Night, can each be calibrated with individual

picture menu adjustments and two point grayscale adjustments.

Recommended CalMAN Workflows:

 HT Basic or SI Basic to optimize display Picture controls and calibrate white balance tracking.

Recommended Test Patterns:

Plasma displays such as the VT25 exhibit power supply luminance limiting with high brightness, high APL

test patterns. This can cause incorrect luminance measurements. To avoid this situation, use test

patterns with the smallest window size available from your test pattern source. Under Window Size, on

the Source Settings panel, select the smallest window size that works with your color meter.

Required Panasonic Firmware:

 Any version is acceptable

Panasonic Control Connection:

 DB9 female to DB9 female straight through RS-232 (pin2 – pin2, pin3 – pin3)

Panasonic Setup Process:

To connect your computer to a VT25 with a serial cable:

1. Connect a DB9 female to DB9 female straight through RS-232 cable between the display and the

CalMAN computer (if necessary, use a USB to serial adapter).
