Full-OSD Time-Out Adjustment
The FULL OSD menu system is used to
simplify the setup and adjustment of the
AVR 8000, using a series of on-screen menus.
The factory default setting for these menus
leaves them on the screen for 20 seconds after
a period of inactivity before they disappear
from the screen (Time-Out). Time-Out is a safety
measure to prevent image retention of the
menu text in your monitor or projector, which
might happen if it were left on indefinitely.
However, some viewers may prefer a slightly
longer or shorter period before the Time-Out
display.
To change the full-OSD Time-Out, you will need
to make an adjustment in the
ADVANCED
menu (Figure 12). To start the adjustment, press
the
OSD Button
v
to bring the
MASTER
MENU to the screen. Press the
¤
Button
p
, until the on-screen
¤
cursor is next to the
ADVANCED line. Press the Set Button
o
to enter the
ADVANCED
menu (Figure 12).
At the
ADVANCED
menu (Figure 12) make
certain that the on-screen
›
cursor is next to
the
FULL OSD TIME OUT
line by press-
ing the ⁄ / ¤ Buttons
mp
as needed.
Next, press the
