Scarlet SMPTE Bars not calibrated

[Brant Hadfield]

So I noticed that the bars are topping out at about 90% (the 100% square), and I also noticed this with video output, wide open brights were not making it all the way to the top of the wave form on my HD-SDI monitor. So I adjusted FLUT and one other (don't recall the name at the moment) just to see if that got my levels up in output video, and it did. But when I put bars back up out of Scarlet, it did not appear to be effected by the adjustments I made, so I have no idea how accurate those adjustments were. I understand Scarlet records raw data anyway, but I will be recording to Nanoflash as well, and would like things monitored and recorded in a calibrated way. Any suggestions?

Ok, this is a bump, but also a question. I guess I am wondering if anyone has calibrated their SDI output from the Red with the Scarlet's color bars. Seems like something you'd want to do. (I do, anyway).

agreed.
so how?
Some sort of output menu tweak(s) presumably?

Didn't know you COULD output the TEST signal? It just pops up on boot in mine then goes away...
