Troubleshooting

CLOCK (pixel frequency) controls the number of pixels scanned
by one horizontal sweep. If the frequency is not correct, the
screen shows vertical stripes and the picture has not correct
width.

FOCUS adjusts the phase of the pixel clock signal. With a wrong
phase adjustment the picture has horizontal disturbances in light
picture.

For FOCUS and CLOCK adjustment use “dot-pattern” or
Windows shut-down mode pattern.
