Using the LitePro
34 LitePro 560/570 User’s Guide
Text Mode and Pixel Slice
Some IBM-compatible computer display modes generate a 720 pixel-
wide image which extends beyond the LitePro’s 640 pixel-wide
image area. For most computers, the LitePro automatically enables
Text Mode, compressing the display to fit. But if you are displaying
text that appears to be truncated on the right side, you may need to
manually enable Text Mode.
When you enable Text Mode, the LitePro compresses the image by
removing every 9th column of pixels; this is referred to as “pixel
slice”. There are 9 pixel slice settings. Choose the one that results in
the most acceptable display.
To enable Text Mode:
1.
Press the
menu
button to display Menu 1.
2.
Use the right or left arrow buttons to highlight “Menu 2”.
3.
Press
select/enter
to display Menu 2.
4.
Use the right or left arrow buttons to highlight “Text Mode”.
5.
Press
select/enter
to enable Text Mode (an “x” appears in the
box).
6.
If you want to change the Pixel Slice setting, use the right or left
arrow buttons to highlight “Pixel Slice”. Press
select/enter
to
cycle through the settings until you find the one that results in
the best image.
Video Type
Television video signal standards vary throughout the world. The
LitePro can adapt to the three most common standards: NTSC, PAL
and SECAM.
• NTSC is used in North America and parts of South America.
• PAL is used in Europe, Australia, China and parts of South
America and Africa.
• SECAM is used in France, some parts of Africa, Eastern Europe
and the Middle East.
If you don’t know which standard is used in your area, select the one
that provides the best image. The default setting is NTSC.
