INFORMATION
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of
the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential
installation.
This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that
interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or
television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to
correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

mode than in the “INTERLACE” mode.
When you select “INTERLACE”, the image
is displayed alternating between half of the
scanned lines in the “PROGRESSIVE”
mode and the other half of the scanned
lines. The way of displaying the image is a
conventional video signal type.
• Select “INTERLACE” when a TV only

select “PROGRESSIVE”, the image is
displayed with all scanned lines at the same
time. The image has a higher resolution
than that in the “INTERLACE” mode.
CAUTION
• Do not connect an S-video cord and a
