The Status Menu provides information about the current input on Program (the button that is lit solid), and the input that is next to be transitioned to Program (the button that is blinking). The Status Menu always updates as “current” and “next” sources change.

Please note:

If Menu Context is ON (in the User Preference Menu), selecting a different input for the “next” transition automatically displays the Input Menu. This menu always reflects the source currently on Program. To return to the Status Menu, press ESC repeatedly.

If Menu Context is OFF, the Status Menu remains on display when you select a different input.

In the Status Menu, the variable fields are as follows:

Program Input Type — Specifies the type of input signal currently on Program.

Program Input Format — Indicates the current input video format, in the form:

Hact x Vact @ Vr Hz

S1280x1024@60 Hz

If the currently selected input does not have a valid input signal, the Input Format field displays Invalid Signal.

Please note the following conventions for displaying resolutions:
