CHAPTER 5: Operation: On-Screen Display

This menu and all other on-screen display windows appear “on top of” your computer video, assuming you are switched to a computer with active video. (If no video is present, then the background is black.) If the display is not synchronized, then you should switch to a computer with active video and configure the resolution setting from the “Configure overlay” page.

5.1.2NAVIGATING THE CONFIGURATION PAGES

Using the on-screen display is very easy and intuitive. Use the arrow keys ([← ], [→ ], [↑ ], and [↓ ]) to highlight a menu selection and hit [Enter] to choose that selection. A help line on the very bottom of each screen explains what each selection is for.

From the main configuration page, choosing a selection by hitting the [Enter] key either exits to normal keyboard operation or goes to the “Configure system,” “Configure computers,” or “Configure overlay” page. From these other pages, choosing a selection by hitting the [Enter] key will bring up an input box in which you can type in text, enter a numeric value, or choose from a list of possible options. Use the [Esc] (escape) key to return to the previous page or to abort an input box.

5.1.3SAVING CHANGES MADE WITH THE ON-SCREEN DISPLAY

If you make any changes to any settings, a message box asking if you want to save the changes will pop up when you exit the main menu. Use the arrow keys to choose “Yes” or “No” and hit [Enter]. If you choose “Yes,” the changes are saved in flash memory; if you choose “No,” the changes are not saved. Regardless of whether you choose “Yes” or “No,” the changed settings will be active until they are changed again. If you answer “No,” the settings you changed will revert to the last saved settings as soon as the ServSwitch is turned OFF.
