GammaComp™  
Providing the best quality image and giving you more color 
control over your monitor! To simplify control of your monitor's 
advanced gamma settings, NEC-Mitsubishi introduces its new 
GammaComp software for your use. This software provides an 
easy-to-use, intuitive graphical user interface that works with the 
Display Data Channel/Command Interface (DDC/CI) protocol to 
adjust gamma settings. These control commands are sent directly 
to the monitor from your system. 
GammaComp Benefits:

The 10-bit resolution provides 4 times as many levels as 8-bit, so color banding problems 
that occur when using 8-bit tables can be reduced.  
GammaComp adjusts the display monitor's internal 10-bit 
gamma Look-Up-Table, allowing various custom display gamma 
or Tone-Response-Curves to be achieved. Gamma compensation 
is done internally in the display at 10-bit resolution. GammaComp 
uses a two way communications link with the display monitor via 
the video graphics adapter and normal video cable. No extra 
cables are necessary. Special support is required in the video 
graphics display driver in order to provide this functionality. This 
communications link is called DDC/CI (Display Data Channel - 
Command Interface).
