Adjusting the picture’s sharpness and centering (SCREEN) (SDM-S73E/S74E analog RGB signal only)

Note

When receiving digital RGB signals from the DVI-D input connector, adjustment is not necessary.

xAutomatic picture quality adjustment function

When the monitor receives an input signal, it automatically adjusts the picture’s position and sharpness (phase/pitch), and ensures that a clear picture appears on the screen (page 17).

Note

While the automatic picture quality adjustment function is activated, only the 1 (power) switch is operable.

If the automatic picture quality adjustment function of this monitor did not seem to adjust the picture completely

You can make further automatic adjustment of the picture quality for the current input signal. (See AUTO below.)

If you still need to make further adjustments to the picture quality

You can manually adjust the picture’s sharpness (phase/pitch) and position (horizontal/vertical position).

These adjustments are stored in memory and automatically recalled when the display receives the same input signal. These settings may have to be repeated if you change the input signal after reconnecting your computer.
