P.SCAN(Progressive Scan) Function
Unlike
regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire 
picture
(odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines 
displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.
