Our Benq XL2429Z lab monitors are individually color-calibrated using a Datacolor Spyder4 Elite colorimeter, based on a fixed hardware profile as specified below. This calibration is used to normalize the color representation of all lab monitors, which allows users to transfer their stimuli from one lab to the other with a minimized change in color perception. The color profile for each monitor will be automatically loaded or refreshed when a user logs into Windows, and will be periodically updated to provide the best possible representation of the [[Wikipedia:International_Color_Consortium | ICC]] standard the monitor's display panel can deliver.

<!-- Note to self: I've tested calibration profile quality over time. After 4 months, no significant difference between previous and new full calibration. -->

To install the profile manually, Right Click on the desktop --> Screen Resolution --> Advanced settings --> Color Management. Click "Add" and browse to the downloaded file. When added, select the profile from the list of associated profiles and click "Set as Default Profile". Note: this color profile should be pre-installed on all lab computers and cannot be changed by the default user. Contact our [mailto:c.lieu@socsci.ru.nl administrator] if you are not sure whether the correct profile is loaded.
