Optimizing Digital Conversion

Two controls in the on-screen display can be adjusted to improve image performance: Clock and Clock Phase.

Identifying Monitor Conditions NOTE: The Clock and Clock Phase controls are adjustable only when using an analog input. These controls are not adjustable for digital inputs.

The Clock must first be set correctly since the Clock Phase settings are dependent on the main Clock setting. Use these controls only when the auto-adjustment function does not provide a satisfactory image.

Clock—Increases/decreases the value to minimize any vertical bars or stripes visible on the screen background.

Clock Phase—Increases/decreases the value to minimize video distortion or video jitter.

Manual background NOTE: When using the controls, you will obtain the best results by using the auto-adjustment pattern software utility provided on the CD.

When adjusting the Clock and Clock Phase values, if the monitor images become distorted, continue adjusting the values until the distortion disappears. To restore the factory settings, select Yes from the Factory Reset menu in the on-screen display.

Identifying Monitor Conditions

Special messages will appear on the monitor screen when identifying the following monitor conditions:

Monitor Status—When the monitor is powered on, a Monitor Status message is displayed for five seconds. The message shows the current active input signal, the current preset display resolution, and the recommended preset display resolution.

Input Signal Out of Range—Change resolution setting to 1366 x 768 – 60Hz—Indicates the monitor does not support the input signal because the resolution and/or refresh rate are set higher than the monitor supports.
