Noise, Flickering Pixels, or Distortion

1Use the Cyclops remote control to adjust the sync first. Make sure you use the entire range of sync adjustments before you proceed to Step 2. Many severe-looking distortions can be corrected using sync.

Note: There are separate sync values for Normal and Fit-to-View modes. Sync adjustments made in one are not applied to the other. Make adjustments in both.

2If sync does not correct the problem, adjust the Dot Clock. Make changes to this parameter slowly to avoid skipping over the desired value. Considerable trial and error may be required.

3If the problem still exists, adjust the VCO Gain.
