1817CONNECTIONSP.SCAN(Progressive Scan) FunctionUnlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create theentire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field ofinformation (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visiblescan lines. Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote controller for over 5 seconds in stopmode.•Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan"repetitively.In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of twointerlaced fields (odd and even), where each fieldcontains every other horizontal line in the frame. The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, andthen the even field is displayed to fill in the alternatinggaps left by the odd field to form a single frame. One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, containstwo interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields aredisplayed every 1/60th of a second.The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturinga still object. Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)The progressive scanning method scans one full frame ofvideo consecutively down the screen, line by line.An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to theinterlaced scanning process by which a video image isdrawn in a series of passes.The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealingwith moving objects.Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?•This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that supportProgressive Video.
