Notes

•This function is intended for use with a computer running Windows or similar graphic user interface software that provides a full-screen picture. It may not work properly if the background color is dark or if the input picture does not fill the screen to the edges (such as an MS-DOS prompt).

•The screen may go blank for a few seconds while performing the auto-sizing function. This is not a malfunction.

If the picture is flickering or fuzzy even after you press the AUTO button

Adjust the Pitch and Phase by referring to “Eliminating Flickering or Blurring Manually.”

If the picture is not in the center of the screen even after you press the AUTO button

Adjust using the CENTER OSD by referring to “Adjusting the Picture Position.”

Eliminating Flickering or Blurring Manually

Once the pitch and phase are adjusted, they will be stored in memory for the current input signal.
