Sync.

(Synchroni-

zation)

The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not

match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the

phases of these signals (the relative position of the crests and troughs in the signal) is called

"synchronization". If the signals are not synchronized, problems such as flickering, blurriness and

horizontal interference can occur.

Tracking The signals output from computers have a specific frequency. If the projector frequency does not

match this frequency, the resulting images will not be of a good quality. The process of matching the

frequency of these signals (the number of crests in the signal) is called "tracking". If tracking is not

carried out correctly, wide vertical stripes will appear in the projected images.

VGA A type of image signal with a resolution of 640 (horizontal) × 480 (vertical) dots which is used by IBM

PC/ AT-compatible computers.

XGA A type of image signal with a resolution of 1,024 (horizontal) × 768 (vertical) dots which is used by

IBM PC/ AT-compatible computers.
