picture, a non-synchronized picture, a non-centered picture, or a skewed picture.
This projector has Manual PC Adjustment to enable you to precisely adjust several parameters to match those special signal
formats.  This projector has 5 independent memory areas to memorize those parameters manually adjusted.  This enables
you to recall the setting for a specific computer whenever you use it.
