 What is MagicTune™? 
Monitor performance can vary due to the graphics ca rd, host computer lighting conditions and other 
environmental factors.  In order to get the best image on  a monitor requires you to adjust it for your unique 
setting.  Unfortunately, the manual controls available to  tune the image often prove to be challenging.  Proper 
adjustment (tuning) requires an easy  to use program that goes through a  step-by-step process to obtain the 
best overall picture quality.  
In most cases even simple adjustments to Brightness, or  Contrast require navigation of the multi-level, on-
screen display (OSD) menus that are not easy to understan d.  Furthermore, there is no feedback to assist in 
correctly setting the controls of the monitor.  MagicTune  is a software utility that guides you through the tuning 
process with easy to understand instructions and back gr ound patterns designed for each monitor control. The 
display settings for each user can be  saved, providing an easy way to select display characteristics in a multi-
user environment, or having a single user have multiple  defined presets based on content and ambient lighting.  
 
 
 Basic Functionality

Channel Command Interface (DDC/CI) protocol.   All adjustments to th e display are controlled via software 
to eliminate the need to use the mo nitor on-screen display (OSD).   
MagicTune supports Windows  98SE, Me, 2000, NT, XP Home, and XP Professional. 
  MagicTune allows for quick accurate tuning of the display with the ability to easily save and use monitor 
configurations that are best suited for you.  
 
 
 OSD Mode

desired menu item to set with ease.
