Note: If your video image is fuzzy (especially if you are using an LCD flat-panel monitor),
you can adjust the video gain to focus the video image. If the OSUI is not displayed, activate
it by pressing the Scroll Lock key twice QUICKLY, then use the + and – (plus and minus)
keys on the numeric keypad to adjust the video image until it appears to be in focus. The P2-
EUST provides automatic and manual skew compensation, which will also help improve
video quality. Please see Video Gain Adjustment and Skew Compensation in P2-EUST in
Chapter 3 for additional information.
