(However, signals cannot be displayed if signals exceeding 1200 lines will not be displayed properly. ) (2) The display resolution is a maximum 640 × 480 dots when the aspect mode is set to "4:3", and 852 × 480 dots when the aspect mode is set to "16:9". If the display resolution exceeds these maximums, it may not be possible to show fine detail with sufficient clarity. (3) The PC input terminals are DDC1/2B-compatible. If the computer being connected is not DDC1/2B-compatible, you will need to make setting changes to the computer at the time of connection. (4) Some PC models cannot be connected to the set. . (5) There is no need to use an adapter for computers with DOS/V compatible D-sub 15P terminal. (6) The computer shown in the illustration is for example purposes only.
