On-screen Display

The on-screen display (OSD) enables you to configure and adjust the DSC from menus displayed on a monitor or other display device connected to a rear panel output.

NOTE: The settings available through these menus can also be selected via SIS commands (see the Remote Configuration and Control section, beginning on page 41).

Menu Overview

The OSD main menu has seven configuration submenus and two read-only information screens. The two DSC models have the same options on their main menus. However, some of the submenus differ between products. The DSC 3G-HD A and DSC HD-3G A OSD menu tables on the next two pages show the submenus and their options for each DSC.

NOTE: The Device Info and Communication screens are read-only and give current device status.

The menu screen always displays the following items, regardless of which submenu is displayed.

Company name and product name are in the upper-left corner.

Firmware version number is in the upper-right corner.

Current Input Resolution and refresh rate are in the lower-left corner

Current output resolution and refresh rate is in the lower-right corner.
