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 infor- mation (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.

Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds in stop mode.

•"P.SCAN" or "I.SCAN" will appear in the display.

At this time, press the P.SCAN button shortly to select between "P.SCAN" and "I.SCAN".
