Selecting Images To Be Shown on the KR-7 and External Displays (User Image Display) (KR-7)
You can have image data from computers and other devices
shown on the onboard display, or on an external display
you’ve connected. You can store two types of image data,
“KR-display-use” data, and “external-display-use” data.
“KR-display-use” images appear on the KR-7’s display when
the instrument’s power is turned on. Refer to the procedure in
“Changing the Settings for Showing Images with the External
Display (External Display) (KR-7)” (p. 153) to set the
instrument so the “external-display-use” image is displayed
on the external display.
At Step 3 in “Procedure” (p. 152), touch <User Image
Display>.
A screen like the one shown below appears.
