Use the Fine Sync function in case of irregularities 
such as vertical stripes or fl ickering in portions of the 
screen.

Note

• You can automatically adjust the computer image 

by setting “Auto Sync” in the “Fine Sync” menu 
to “Normal” or “High speed”, or pressing 

 

AUTO SYNC on the remote control.

• Depending on the type of input signal, the 

adjustment range for each setting may vary or the 
adjustment may not be available at all.

• To reset all adjustment items, select “Yes” in 

“Reset” and press 

 ENTER.

Ordinarily, the type of input signal is detected and the 
correct resolution mode is automatically selected. How-
ever, for some signals, the optimal resolution mode in 
“Special Modes” in the “Fine Sync” menu may need to 
be selected to match the computer display mode.

Note

• Avoid displaying computer patterns which repeat 

every other line (horizontal stripes). (Flickering 
may occur, making the image hard to see.)

automatically performed.

Normal

the projector is turned on or when 
the input signals are switched, when 
connected to a computer.

image synchronization more accurately 
than the “High Speed” setting. For this 
reason, it takes slightly longer to make 
the adjustment.
