SETUP

In addition to the front-panel display, the MC-1 contains a character

generator for a video overlay display on monitors. Since the on-screen

display is capable of showing the full menu of options available at any

point, calibration of the system is faster and easier if the MC-1

video

output is connected to a video monitor.

Adjustments to the on-screen display are made from the Display Adjust

menu. To display this menu, press the ▲, ▼ or SELECT buttons on the

Remote to enter the Main Menu. Press ▼ twice to select DISPLAY
