Optimizing image performance (analog input)

You can adjust two controls in the on-screen display to improve image performance: Clock and Phase

(available in the OSD menu). Use these controls only when the auto-adjustment function does not provide a

satisfactory image.

NOTE:

The Clock and Phase controls are adjustable only when you use an analog (VGA) input. These controls

are not adjustable for digital inputs.
The Clock must first be set correctly because the Phase settings are dependent on the main Clock setting.

●

Clock: Increases or decreases the value to minimize any vertical bars or stripes visible on the screen

background.

●

Phase: Increases or decreases the value to minimize video flickering or blurring.

NOTE:

When using the controls, you will obtain the best results by using the auto-adjustment pattern

software utility. You can download this utility from

Phase.

button to open the OSD menu, select Image, and then select Clock and Phase.
