12.2.3Protocol Table: Mimicking OSD

You can associate a function number to its description and valid parameters intuitively by navigating the OSD menu according to the following logic:

A function number is directly related to its location in the OSD menu.

For example, the third menu on the OSD is Process (3 in the hundreds). The second menu item in Process is Film Mode (2 in the tens), therefore the function number for it will be 320 (3rd item on the Main Window Control and the 2nd item in the Process submenu (see also Section 6.1). When navigating in the OSD MENU you will be able to see the Film Mode valid parameters.

iNote that SDI is not applicable to the VP-770and appears transparent in the OSD. The commands related to SDI in the protocol commands
