Basic Operation
Adjusting the Picture
Progressive ModeThis function allows you to select the progressive display of a video signal. The progressive display
projects a smoother video image. See page 38 for the procedure details.
Selects the progressive conversion mode.
2D Progressive
This function is useful to display fast-moving images such
as sports and action films. This mode optimizes the image
in a displayed frame.
3D ProgressiveThis function is useful to display relatively slow-moving
images such as drama and documentary more clearly.
This mode optimizes the image by estimating the movement
of a number of preceding and succeeding frames.
Film ModeReproduces the image of film source clearly. Displays the
optimized image of film transformed with three-two pull down
(NTSC and PAL 60Hz) or two-two pull down (PAL 50Hz and
SECAM) enhancement to progressive mode images.
* The film source is a digital video recording with the original
encoded as is at 24 frames/second. The projector can
convert this film source to progressive video at 60 frames/
second with NTSC and PAL60Hz or at 50 frames/second
with PAL50Hz and SECAM to play back a high-difinition
image.
• When using progressive inputs, these inputs are directly displayed therefore 2D Progressive, 3D Progressive and Film
Mode cannot be selected. These modes can be selected in interlace signals other than 1080I.
• In NTSC or PAL60Hz, even if the 3D Progressive mode has been set, the three-two pull down enhancement will be
enabled automatically, when the film source has been entered.
• In PAL50Hz or SECAM, the two-two pull down enhancement will be enabled only in the Film Mode, when the film source
has been entered.

Basic Operation
• Computer image adjustments can be made easily by pressing AUTO SYNC (). See page 45 for details.
• To reset all adjustment items, select “Reset” on the “Fine Sync” menu screen and press ENTER.
Adjusting the Computer Images (RGB menu only)
When displaying computer patterns which are very detailed (tiling, vertical stripes, etc.), interference
may occur between the LCD pixels, causing flickering, vertical stripes, or contrast irregularities in portions
of the screen. Should this occur, adjust “Clock”, “Phase”, “H-Pos” and “V-Pos” for the optimum computer
image. See page 
38 for the procedure details.
Select the desired computer input mode with INPUT 1 or 2.
ClockAdjusts vertical noise.
PhaseAdjusts horizontal noise (similar to tracking on your VCR).
H-PosCenters the on-screen image by moving it to the left or
right.
V- Po sCenters the on-screen image by moving it up or down.
Saving and Selecting Adjustment SettingsThis projector allows you to store up to seven adjustment settings for use with various computers. Once
these settings are stored, they can be easily selected each time you connect a computer to the projector.
Selecting a saved setting Saving the adjustment setting
• If a memory position has not been set, a resolution and frequency setting will not be displayed.
• When selecting the stored adjustment setting with “Select Setting”, the computer system should match the stored setting.

Basic Operation
Adjusting the Computer Images (RGB menu only)
Special Mode AdjustmentOrdinarily, the type of input signal is detected and the correct resolution mode is automatically selected.
However, for some signals, the optimal resolution mode in “Special Modes” on the “Fine Sync” menu
screen may need to be selected to match the computer display mode. See page 
38 for the procedure
details.
• Avoid displaying computer patterns which repeat every other line (horizontal stripes). (Flickering may occur, making the
image hard to see.)
• When inputting DTV 480P or 1080I signals, select the corresponding type of signal.
Checking the Input SignalThis function allows you to check the current input signal information.

cleared when the projector’s setting is changed.
• Automatic adjustments can be made by pressing AUTO SYNC.
• When performing AUTO SYNC in Off or High Speed mode, if you press AUTO SYNC once, then press it again within one

• When the optimum image cannot be achieved with Auto Sync adjustment, use manual adjustments. (See page 
43.)
Auto Sync Display FunctionNormally, an image is not superimposed during Auto Sync adjustment. You can, however, choose to
superimpose a background image during Auto Sync adjustment.
