Can this monitor be calibrated? Mine is reading 30mmHg higher than my doctor's monitor.

I sent the one I had purchased for my husband back for a refund. It read noticeable higher than the one at our doctor's office.

I was told that a pharmecy would do it. I have not tried it. My readings seem ok.

Mine was 7 higher then the one in the Doctor's office. I may be wrong but it is my understanding the calibration is to take it somewhere like your doctor's office and have them use their monitor and then your monitor so you know the difference and then YOU keep in mind the difference. If you find out that I am wrong, then please send a message back to me. I wish they were the same, too.

Yes it can be calibrated with a wrench on the back side of the dial.. Hope that helps you.

I believe that one of the reasons this monitor is lower in price is that it badly needs calibration upon arrival. I spent about an hour and a half calibrating it to match what you are asking. So, the answer is yes, but not without some effort in calibration. Some of the calibration I was able to do with the monitor itself, but the rest I had to do with my video card to compensate. After being calibrated, however, it has performed perfectly.

Possibly, depending on how off your colors are. Remember that sometimes calibration results in a reduction of the brightness of a screen or a projected image. This may detract from the viewing experience.

Not sure about that Michael. Maybe someone else can respond to your question. I really don't think it would calibrate correctly.....just my opinion.

I'm sorry I don't know for certain. Better ask an expert. This is a wonderful monitor however.

I find my monitor calibrating every now and then, flashing various colors and lines across the screen, but it usually doesn't look for input. I'm guessing it's getting a mixed signal from your computer, or some device it is plugged into? If you hit the "Source" button (the + sign), you can select a default source and turn OFF the auto-select source option. This might also help.

If you're referring to G-Sync (NVidia's proprietary dynamic refresh rate feature), then NO! This monitor does not have that. There are no sub-$300 monitors that have that feature due to how new it is and the cost of the hardware required to implement that feature.

I have 2 of these and the humidistat seems to read differently in each one. You can't calibrate it. I just set it to achieve the humidity I want, using what I assume is a more accurate humidity gauge. This is the AcuRite gauge I use. AcuRite 00613A1 Indoor Humidity Monitor

I checked it with my other meter and it appears to be already calibrated. Both of my meters match.

No monitor comes color calibrated. I calibrated mine using Displays &gt; calibrate.

I agree with DBroncos spending the dough on getting this model calibrated is a joke. If you're scared you may not know how to calibrate properly just copy settings from this thread. http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=1019763

not to my knowledge..we have already upgraded our monitor to a different model..

Yes you can. The hardware first calibrates the light in your office or computer room. You can do this two ways. 1) if you have work lights turn them on and calibrate or 2) cover the eye of the hardware and calibrate to total darkness for an alternative consistency. I have two monitors my Mac and my Dell. The ColorMunki recognized both monitors and asked me to choose which one I wanted to start with. Brilliant! There are two settings Easy set up or Advance. I did it both ways and preferred the easy set up for less human error. Then it does it's thing. There is a great little visual guide book that comes with the hardware to walk you through how to open it. I can't stress how simple this is. And makes a huge difference. Finally, Calibrating is not a one time thing, you will be repeating these steps often. I've set my reminder for every two weeks. Most monitors are also intuitive and will shift according to the lighting changes in the room, a lovely feature but also just another reason you will continually calibrate. Good luck!

The readings on mine are pretty right on. You should bring it to your doctors office on your next visit and compare it to their reading right at that time.

I'm using the OMRON HEM-773 monitor and it seems to work. I'm going to take it to my dr though to make sure it does correctly measure.

I'm afraid I can't answer your question:(All I know is since I've been using this monitor, it has given me results that Is much the same or similar results to what I would get when I go see my doctor. Cheers
