Chapter 3 Basic Operations — Operating with the remote control

Using the Automatic setup function

The automatic setup function can be used to automatically adjust the resolution, clock phase, and image
position when analog RGB signals consisting of bitmap images such as computer signals are being input, or
to automatically adjust the image position when DVI-D/HDMI signals are input. Supplying images with bright
white borders at the edges and high-contrast black and white characters is recommended when the system is in
automatic adjustment mode.
Avoid supplying images that include halftones or gradation, such as photographs and computer graphics.
