78 5. Using On-Screen Menu [IMAGE OPTIONS] Adjusting Clock and Phase [CLOCK/PHASE] 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� PHASE �������������������Use this item to adjust the clock phase or to reduce video noise, dot interference or cross talk� (This is evident when part of your image appears to be shimmering�) Use [PHASE] only after the [CLOCK] is complete� NOTE: The [CLOCK] and [PHASE] items are available for RGB signals only.
79 5. Using On-Screen Menu 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 vertical frequency, its adjustments will be called up and applied. To delete adjustments stored in memory, from the menu, you select [RESET] → [CURRENT SIGNAL] and reset the adjustments. [BLANKING] Adjusts the display range (blanking) at the top, bottom, left and right edges of the input signal. Selecting Overscan Percentage [OVERSCAN] Select overscan percentage (Auto, 0%, 5% and 10%) for signal. Projected image Overscaned by 10% NOTE: • The [OVERSCAN] item is not available: - when [NATIVE] is selected for [ASPECT RATIO].
80 5. Using On-Screen Menu Selecting the Aspect Ratio [ASPECT RATIO] Use this function to select the screen’s vertical:horizontal aspect ratio. Select the screen type (4:3 screen, 16:9 screen or 16:10 screen) at the screen setting before setting the aspect ratio. (→ page 97) The projector automatically identifies the signal being input and sets the optimum aspect ratio.

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. 5:4The image is displayed in 5:4 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
81 5. Using On-Screen Menu OptionsFunction NATIVE The projector displays the current image in its true resolution when the incoming computer signal has a lower or higher resolution than the projector’s native resolution. (→ page 2)When the incoming computer signal has a higher resolution than the projector's native resolution, the center of an image will be displayed. LETTER BOXThe image of a letterbox signal (16:9) is stretched equally in the horizontal and vertical directions to fit the screen. WIDE SCREENThe image of a squeeze signal(16:9) is stretched left and right in 16:9. ZOOMThe image of a squeeze signal (16:9) is stretched left and right in 4:3.Parts of the displayed image are cropped at the left and right edges and therefore not visible. FULLProject to full screen size. TIP: • Image position can be adjusted vertically using [POSITION] when the [16:9], [15:9], or [16:10] aspect ratios are selected. • 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 vide 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. [INPUT RESOLUTION] The resolution is assigned automatically when the resolution of the input signal from the computer video input terminal or BNC video input terminal (analog RGB) cannot be distinguished.
82 5. Using On-Screen Menu [VIDEO] Using Noise Reduction [NOISE REDUCTION] When projecting a video image, you can use the [NOISE REDUCTION] function to reduce the screen noise (roughness and distortion). This device is equipped with three types of noise reduction functions. Select the function according to the type of noise. Depending on the noise level, the noise reduction effect can be set to [OFF], [LOW], [MEDIUM] or [HIGH]. [NOISE REDUCTION] can be selected for SDTV, HDTV signal and component signal input. RANDOM NR ���������Reduces flickering random noise in an image� MOSQUITO NR ������Reduces mosquito noise that appears around the edges of an image during \ Blu-ray playback� BLOCK NR �������������Reduces block noise or mosaic-like patterns by selecting ON� Selecting Interlaced Progressive Conversion Process Mode [DEINTERLACE] This function allows you to select an interlaced-to-progressive conversion process for video signals. NORMAL ����������������Automatically distinguishes a moving image from a static image to create a distinct image� Please select [MOVIE] if there are any obvious jitter and noises� MOVIE �������������������Select when projecting moving images� This is suitable for signals with a lot of jitter and noise� STILL ���������������������Select when projecting static images� The video will flicker when a moving image is projected� NOTE: This function is not available with RGB signals.
