10.4.9 User Text Menu
The IVS can insert additional text into the video image, for example the production name or a scene number. The text can be entered on the IVS using the text edit facility.
If information is stored in the text memory, it will remain there until the memory is cleared or new information overrides the old one, even if the IVS or the camera is switched off or disconnected from the power supply. This enables for example a camera rental house to store information, which is then available to the production team. This might be for example the production name.
Like all man readable information, the data is inserted as a window on the monitor image. The window can be switched on and off independently. Background, position and character format can be altered without affecting the settings of other windows.
This additional line shows the text information, similar to this:
PROD. NAME | UNIT A | TAKE 35 | SCENE 11/III |
The adjustment of the white level of the inserted data, an inverse display and a fine adjustment of the vertical position is described in chapters 10.4.5 White Level, Inverse and Fine Positioning.
