What is Ma
gicTune™?  
Monitor performance can vary due to the graphics card, 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 understand. 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 
ground 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 environme or having 
a single user have multiple defined presets based on content and ambient lighting. 
 
 
 
 
Basic Functionalit
y 
MagicTune™ is a software utility that allows monitor adjustment and color tuning using the 
Display Data Channel Command Interface (DDC/CI) protocol.  All adjustments to the display are 
controlled via software to eliminate the need to use the monitor on-screen display (OSD).  
MagicTune™ supports Windows™ 98 SE, Me, 2000, XP Home, and XP Professional.  
It is recommended using MagicTune™ in Windows™ 2000 or later.

monitor configurations that are best suited for you.
