Adjusting Clock and Phase [Clock/Tracking]

This allows you to manually adjust [Clock] and [Tracking].

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 banding in the image. This adjustment may be necessary when you connect your computer for the first time.

Tracking ....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 [Tracking] only after the [Clock] is complete.

Adjusting Horizontal/Vertical Position [Horizontal position/Vertical position]

Adjusts the image location horizontally and vertically.

- An image can be distorted during the adjustment of [Clock] and [Tracking]. This is not malfunction.

- The adjustments for [Clock], [Tracking], [Horizontal position], and [Vertical position] 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] or [All data] and reset the adjustments.

Selecting Overscan Percentage [Overscan]

Select overscan percentage (0%, 5% and 10%) for signal.

NOTE:

• The [0[%]] cannot be selected when VIDEO and S-VIDEO signals are used.
• [Overscan] is not available when [True size] is selected for [Aspect].

Selecting Aspect Ratio [Aspect]

The term "aspect ratio" refers to the ratio of width to height of a projected image. The projector automatically determines the incoming signal and displays it in its appropriate aspect ratio.

• This table shows typical resolutions and aspect ratios that most computers support.

Sample image when the appropriate aspect ratio is automatically determined

TIP:

• Image position can be adjusted vertically using [D.image shift] 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.

Adjusting the Vertical Position of Image [D.image shift] (not available on LV-8310/LV-8215)

When [16:9], [15:9], or [16:10] is selected in [Aspect], the image is displayed with black borders on the top and bottom. You can adjust the vertical position from the top to the bottom of the black area.
