Using the OSD

This unit incorporates an OSD(On-screen display) function to provide information about basic operation of this unit and to simplify the setup procedures.

The OSD function uses a monitor TV connected to this unit as a display and has two kinds of display modes such as current status display and menu screen.

Notes :

•Any on-screen display shown on the monitor TV will not be recorded.

•Because this unit cannot support the OSD function for the progressively scanned video signal, the OSD for current status and menu settings may be displayed abnormally or may not be displayed.

CURRENT STATUS DISPLAY

This mode shows the status corresponding to each operation.

•The on-screen display will automatically disappear in several seconds.

•For examples, there are 2 status displays as follows.

Notes :

•When watching a movie earnestly, if you want to turn off the current status display function, set the OSD auto display mode to Off.(For details, refer to “When selecting the OSD AUTO DISPLAY” on page 53.)

Current status display function might not operate as expected if :

•You view a movie via MONITOR COMPONENT OUTs while component video signals are input into this unit.

•You view a movie via MONITOR COMPOSITE OUT while S-Video signals and composite video signals are input into this unit.

OSD Menu Settings

•The OSD menu allows you to perform the setup procedures easily. In most situations, you will only need to set this once during the installation and layout of your home theater, and it rarely needs to be changed later. The OSD menu consists of 5 main menus: speaker setup, system setup, surround setup, CH level setup and room 2 feed setup. Some of these menus are divided into various sub-menus.

•The OSD menu settings are performed easily with the CURSOR control(, , , ), OSD, RETURN and ENTER buttons. Notes:

•In such a case of making only COMPONENT VIDEO connections between this unit and video components, while viewing a movie via the MONITOR COMPONENT OUTs, if the OSD menu operation is performed, the picture is automatically turned off and only the OSD menu is displayed.

•When S-Video signals and composite video signals are input into this unit, even though the OSD menu operation is performed, the OSD menu cannot be displayed via MONITOR COMPOSITE OUT.
