Screen Size Selection

This unit incorporates screen modes of various height and width ratios. For optimal viewing, we recommend that you select the screen mode that best matches the video source that you are viewing. Although these modes are designed for full display of a picture on a wide screen, it is our hope that you make use of them with a full understanding of the manufacturer’s intentions.

Changing the screen size

The size of the image displayed on the screen, and the range of the image shown can be set in one of four modes on the PDP-503MXE, and in three modes on the PDP-433MXE.

Press SCREEN SIZE to select the size.

The screen size changes each time SCREEN SIZE is pressed as follows.
