This	allows	you	to	manually	adjust	CLOCK	and	PHASE.
CLOCK �������������������Use this item to fine tune the computer image or to remove any vertical banding that might appear� This 
function adjusts the clock frequencies that eliminate the horizontal ban\
ding in the image�
This adjustment may be necessary when you connect your computer for the first time�

Adjusting	Horizontal/Vertical	Position	[HORIZONTAL/VERTICAL]
Adjusts	the	image	location	horizontally	and	vertically.
-	 An	image	can	be	distorted	during	the	adjustment	of	[CLOCK]	and	[PHASE].	This	is	not	malfunction.
-	 The	adjustments	for	[CLOCK],	[PHASE],	[HORIZONTAL],	and	[VERTICAL]	will	be	stored	in	memory	for	the	
current	signal.	The	next	time	you	project	the	signal	with	the	same	resolution,	horizontal	and	ver tical	frequency,	
its	adjustments	will	be	called	up	and	applied.
	 To	delete	adjustments	stored	in	memory,	from	the	menu,	you	select	[RESET]	→	[CURRENT	SIGNAL]	or	[ALL	
DATA]	and	reset	the	adjustments.
Selecting	Overscan	Percentage	[OVERSCAN]

Selecting Aspect Ratio [ASPECT RATIO]
The	term	“aspect	ratio”	ref ers	to	the	r atio	of	width	to	height	of	a	projected	image .
The	projector	automatically	determines	the	incoming	signal	and	displays	it	in	its	appropriate	aspect	ratio.
•	 This	table	shows	typical	resolutions	and	aspect	ratios	that	most	computers	support.

The	projector	will	automatically	determine	the	incoming	signal	and	display	it	in	its	aspect	
ratio.	(→ next	page)
The	projector	may	erroneously	determine	the	aspect	ratio	depending	on	its	signal.	If	this	
occurs,	select	the	appropriate	aspect	ratio	from	the	following.
4:3The	image	is	displayed	in	4:3	aspect	ratio.
16:9The	image	is	displayed	in	16:9	aspect	ratio.
15:9The	image	is	displayed	in	15:9	aspect	ratio.
16:10The	image	is	displayed	in	16:10	aspect	ratio.
LETTERBOXThe	image	of	a	letterbox	signal	is	stretched	equally	in	the	horiz ontal	and	ver tical	direc-
tions	to	fit	the	screen.	Parts	of	the	display ed	image	are	cropped	at	the	top	and	bottom	
edges	and	therefore	not	visible.
NATIVEThe	projector	displays	the	current	image	in	its	true	resolution	when	the	incoming	computer	
signal	has	a	lower	resolution	than	the	projector’s	native	resolution.
[Example]	When	the	incoming	signal	with	the	resolution	of	
800	×	600	is	displayed:
NOTE:
•	 When	a	non-computer	signal	is	displayed,	the	[NATIVE]	is	not	available.
•	 When	a	signal	with	a	higher	resolution	than	the	projector’s	native	resolution	is	displayed,	[NA-
TIVE]	is	not	available.

NOTE:	To	display	a	squeezed	signal	prop-
erly,	select	[16:9].
TIP:
•	 The	term	“letterbox”	refers	to	a	more	landscape-oriented	image	when	compared	to	a	4:3	image,	which	is	the	standard	aspect	
ratio	for	a	video	source.
	 The	letterbox	signal	has	aspect	ratios	with	the	vista	size	“1.85:1”	or	cinema	scope	size	“2.35:1”	for	movie	film.
•	 The	term	“squeeze”	refers	to	the	compressed	image	of	which	aspect	ratio	is	converted	from	16:9	to	4:3.
Turning on Noise Reduction [NOISE REDUCTION]
This	function	allows	you	to	select	the	level	of	noise	reduction.
The	projector	is	set	to	the	optimized	level	for	each	signal	at	the	factory.
Select	your	preference	item	for	your	signal	when	video	noise	is	noticeable.
The	options	are	[OFF],	[LOW],	[MEDIUM],	and	[HIGH].
NOTE:	This	feature	is	not	available	for	the	RGB	signal.	Noise	reduction	set	to	off	gives	best	image	quality	by	way	of	higher	bandwidth.	
Noise	reduction	set	to	on	softens	the	image.
