I read some monitor specifications, and a brightness value of e.g. 250 cd/m² is often mentioned there. But the monitor can have different brightness settings, and RGB channels can be adjusted to change the final brightness (e.g. RGB all max is one brightness, all min is another).
So, when I read in a specification that a monitor's brightness is 250 cd/m² — what monitor configuration does this refer to? Maximum possible brightness? 50% in all settings? Factory defaults? Or does this spec item simply say that the monitor is able to output this brightness, in an unspecified configuration mode?
