Operation

Miscellaneous: Select Miscellaneous from the Service menu to set the following options:

Language: Select Language from the Miscellaneous menu and press the up- or down-arrows to select the OSD language. (Currently, only English is supported.)

Menu Mode: This is the manner in which the OSD menus appear and disappear when you press MENU. Choose one of the following:

0 = No transition; menus abruptly appear and disappear.

1 = Menus fade in and out.

2 = “Checkerboard” dissolve; menus appear and disappear in sections.

3 = “Window shade” effect; menus are drawn on a diagonal from top left to bottom right, and retract in the opposite direction.

Timeout - Short/Long: These settings control how long the OSD menus stay on screen. Select a time-out period of from 2 to 60 seconds.

Side Bar Color: This controls the color of the inactive image area. The range is from -100 (black) to 100 (white).

The inactive image area is on either side of the active image area when using the Standard 4:3 aspect ratio (or the entire screen when no incoming video signal is present).

Film Mode: Enable Film Mode to smooth out moving images from interlaced, standard-definition (SD) sources. In most cases, the PlasmaView detects the proper “pull-down” rate and vertical frequency. However, if your source is jittery and/or tearing you may wish to enable Film Mode to ensure stable processing for that source.

System Reset: To reset ALL VHD Controller settings (including image settings) back to their factory defaults, choose System Reset from the Service menu.

A confirmation message appears, reminding you to save your settings before you perform the reset, so that you can restore them afterwards. If you have done this, select Confirm to continue with the reset. Otherwise, click Back to cancel.

This action is not undoable. Proceed with caution! Before you perform a Caution System Reset, save ALL settings, including “Custom” ISF Presets (page 37), ISF

Day/Night presets (page 37), Output Shift settings (page 39), Input Names (page 40) and Trigger settings (page 42).

Restore Saved Settings: Following a System Reset, select Restore Saved Settings to apply all previously-saved settings to the PlasmaView and VHD Controller.
