To reduce blurring and noise

If you adjust the [Pixel Phase] after adjusting [Pixel Tracking], it is easier to find the optimum point at which there is
minimum blurring or noise.
When adjusting [Pixel Tracking], the point at which the vertical belt of noise disappears when you display the [Quit
Windows] screen from the Windows 95/98/2000 Start Menu or the checkered pattern, is the optimum adjustment value.
When adjusting the [Pixel Phase], the point at which the horizontal blurring or noise disappears when you display the [Quit
Windows] screen from the Windows 95/98/2000 Start Menu or the checkered pattern, is the optimum adjustment value.

When automatically adjusting the position

• The horizontal position, vertical position, picture width and picture blurring are adjusted automatically.

• This adjustment will be executed when the following operations are performed.

1) when the power is turned on and the lamp lights

2) when the type of input source signal is changed while the lamp is on

3) when the input selector button is pressed while the lamp is on.

4) when the AUTO button is pressed while the lamp is on.

• The [Auto Setting] message is displayed on the screen during automatic adjustment.

• The picture may appear distorted during automatic adjustment, but this is not a malfunction.

• Correct adjustment may fail to be performed due to the input signal and input image from the PC. In this case, adjust
manually.

• Adjust the position automatically when you have a bright projected image.
Adjustment is only possible when the input source is set. It cannot be performed when there is no signal. ([NO SIGNAL]
is displayed.)

PC Output Signal

The projector has been designed with the RGB signals listed on page En-35 in mind. Depending on your PC, the RGB
signals output may be different from the design values. In particular, when the internal LCD panel of the notebook PC and
external CRT are set on simultaneous display, the RGB signal output may be outside the compatible range. In this case, it
may not be possible to display the image normally. Set the PC to “external CRT only” display mode.

• No image may appear even if the resolution and frequency mentioned above are the same.

• PC display mode

When an image signal is input from a PC, the projector automatically selects the mode (resolution and frequency)
and projectsthe picture according to that mode.
The projector fundamentally conforms to VESA (Video Electronics Standards Association) standards, but depend­ing on the typeof PC, a non-VESA signal may be output. In such cases, the projected image will not be correctly
displayed, the overall picture will be blue in color, and the [NO SIGNAL] message will be displayed on the screen.
In this case, reset the image signal from the PC to another compatible mode. For details, refer to the above table
and the instruction manual for the PC.
