16 2. TV Setup
Tip:
Set the computer’s screen saver to display a 
pattern after several minutes of inactivity.  This acts 
as a reminder that the TV is powered on and the 
lamp is in use.  The lamp is in use whenever the TV 
is powered on, even if the screen appears dark.
Computer Video Adjustments
1.  Power on the computer if it is not already on.
2.  Select PC from the Input Selection menu.  To do 
this, press 
INPUT
 to open the Input Selection menu, 
move the highlight to the PC icon, and press 
ENTER.
3.  Working from the computer, change the resolution 
of the computer image.  View the computer image 
on the TV and maximize the computer resolution 
while maintaining a suitable aspect ratio for the 
image.
4.  Perform TV video adjustments.  Press 
VIDEO
 repeatedly to access video-
adjustment options.  The following 
additional adjustments are available 
for computer video:
Horiz Position (Horizontal Position).  
Manually adjust the horizontal 
position.
Vert Position (Vertical Position).  
Manually adjust the vertical position.
5.  Press 
FORMAT
 repeatedly to find the 
picture format best suited to the 
image.  See the chart on this page 
showing how different computer reso-
lutions are displayed on the TV.
Image Resolution
Your Mitsubishi TV can display resolutions 
from standard VGA (640 x 480) through 
1920 x 1080 signals at a refresh rate of 60 
Hz.  The resolution of 1920 x 1080 is sup-
ported at refresh rates of  24, 30, and 60 
Hz.  See Appendix A in this book for more 
on compatible screen resolutions.
In most cases, the computer will select the 
best resolution match to display on the TV. 
You can override this setting if you wish.  
Refer to your computer operating system’s 
instructions for information on changing 
the screen resolution.
You may need to restart the computer for 
changes to take effect.

Distortion in Computer Images
Computer images may show 
distortion when viewed on the TV, 
e.g., lines that should be straight may 
appear slightly curved.
