100 Hz
100 Hertz provides a superior solution to
the problem of picture flicker which is
particularly noticeable with larger screen
sizes. In a conventional TV, the picture area
is scanned 50 times a second (50 Hertz) –
a frequency which is still detectable by the
human eye in the form of a flickering
picture. In 100 Hertz sets, the picture area
is scanned at a rate of 100 times per
second (100 Hertz). At this frequency, the
eye cannot detect flicker, resulting in a
clearer picture which is more relaxing to
the eye.
Automatic Channel Installation (ACI)

the same order as offered by your cable

automatic, simple and fast.
