Reference Grade OLED Monitoring from Production to Post

The DM220 is a high-contrast 22" OLED monitor designed for use in color critical production and post-production applications. Industry leading fast mode processing, a durable all metal chassis, our most advanced feature set, and a compact and lightweight form-factor make the DM220 an exceptional reference grade monitoring solution for any environment.

Color Management

FSI’s 3rd generation Color Fidelity and LUT Interpolation Engine (CFE3) houses a multitude of calibration and Look LUT memories for highly accurate color reproduction and effective look management. Instantly select from Rec709, EBU, SMPTE-C, DCI P3, Rec2020 Emulation*, Native Wide Gamut, and Custom User Generated color spaces.

*Does not fully cover Rec2020 color space.

Additional gamma, peak luminance, and color temperature toggles further add to the versatility of DM Series Monitors.

DM series monitors support video range, extended range, and full range monitoring with simple menu based toggles.

CFE3 features industry leading tetrahedral LUT interpolation for greater accuracy and visual performance than hardware utilizing trilinear LUT interpolation.

Calibration

FSI monitors come pre-calibrated from the factory and all DM series monitors support highly accurate volumetric Auto Calibration for recalibration over time.

Simply plug a supported probe directly into the monitor and the advanced AutoCal routine will profile the monitor and use volumetric data to accurately target a very wide variety of available color management selections. 3D and 1D LUTs are calculated and saved on the fly as color management selections on the monitor are made, making for one simple and unified calibration process, all without requiring a computer.

How well does it work? See sample DM220 AutoCal results here (.pdf download).

Third Party Calibration

DM series monitors are also fully compatible with popular 3rd party calibration solutions including Calman, LightSpace, and ColourSpace. Quickly and easily perform your own custom 3D LUT based calibration with any program capable of saving into FSI’s calibration LUT format.

Software Integration

Powerful DM series features are supported by select applications including FSI’s DM Series IP Remote Utility, Pomfort’s Livegrade Pro, QTake's Grade Module, and Assimilate Live Assist and Live Looks.

Meters feature adjustable Alignment Level, Permitted Max Level, and Peak Hold Time. Select between True Peak, PPM Type I, or PPM Type II ballistics. Meters will indicate NO DATA if an audio group is not embedded in the signal to differentiate it from audio channels that may be mute, but still embedded.

Vertical Audio Level Meters

16 channel audio level meter display with adjustable Alignment Level, Permitted Max Level, and Peak Hold Time. Select between True Peak, PPM Type I, or PPM Type II ballistics. Meters will indicate NO DATA if an audio group is not embedded in the signal to differentiate it from audio channels that may be mute, but still embedded.

A dedicated function that maps full frame signal data onto your choice of CIE1931 x,y or CIE1976 u’,v’ diagrams. Signal information is shown relative to your active color space and can be compared to a selectable secondary color gamut.

Measurement (8 & 10bit)

Get precise real-time YRGB measurements, both as a percentage and 8 or 10bit data values, of any point or sample area within your incoming signal. Set a spatial and temporal reference and compare with any other point to quantify the difference in values between any two points. Also quantify the difference in points as an F/stop value.

CIE Measurement

Visualize any point or sample area within your incoming signal on your choice of CIE 1931 x,y or CIE1976 u’,v’ diagrams. Values are shown relative to your current operating color space and regardless of diagram mode R’,G’,B’, Y%, x,y,u’,v’ values are reported at all times. As with the standard measurement mode a reference position can be selected and compared to any other position. The difference between current and reference positions is also quantified with a dE2000 value.

Video Data Analyzer

Provides real-time readout of video data at the pixel level in your choice of decimal or hexadecimal values. Can show pixel level information as YCbCr or RGB as well as 8bit or 10bit.

This feature can be used in combination with the H/V delay mode for horizontal and vertical blanking data analysis.

Interlaced Signal Monitoring

The DM220 has the unique ability to replicate interlaced video accurately on screen making it ideal for spotting quality control concerns like field reversals. The DM220’s OLED panel is also not susceptible to the fast onset TIR & after-image flicker that occurs on many IPS LCD panels when trying to simulate interlaced video accurately on screen.

Markers

Choose from a wide assortment of standard markers and safety areas that can be displayed as lines, translucent overlays, or solid overlays. Lines and overlays have selectable colors for instant customization.
