Terminology

OSD(On Screen Display)

On screen display (OSD) allows you to configure on-screen settings to optimize the picture quality as required. It allows you to change the screen brightness, tint, size and many other settings using menus displayed on the screen.

HUB

HUB refers to a device that is a common connection point for multiple devices connected over a network. It is used to connect multiple PCs, video devices, office devices and/or LANs over a single network.

Coarse

Coarse refers to the frequency of radio wave vibrations per second. A higher frequency transmits a larger amount of data and is reflected easier. A lower frequency traverses obstacles more easily and can travel farther, but it transmits a smaller amount of data. The Coarse menu allows you to manually adjust the frequency to obtain the optimum picture quality. Adjust Coarse referring to Standard Signal Mode Table (80page) according to the performance of your product and enjoy improved picture quality.

Gamma

The Gamma menu adjusts the grey scale that represents middle tones on the screen. Adjusting the brightness brightens the whole screen, but adjusting Gamma only brightens the medium brightness.

Grey scale

Scale refers to levels of color intensity that show variations of color change from darker areas to brighter areas on the screen. Changes to the screen brightness are expressed with black and white variation, and grey scale refers to the medium area between black and white. Changing the grey scale through Gamma adjustment will change the medium brightness on the screen.

Scanning rate

Scanning rate, or refresh rate, refers to the frequency of screen refreshes. Screen data is transmitted as it refreshes to display an image, although the refreshing is invisible to the naked eye. The number of screen refreshes is called scanning rate and is measured in Hz. A scanning rate of 60Hz means that the screen refreshes 60 times per second. The screen scanning rate depends on the performance of the graphics cards in your PC and monitor.
