6 Operation

To operate the monitor, use the five buttons on
the rear or use the remote control provided.
When pressing a button on the remote control,
always point the remote control at the infrared
sensor (24) of the monitor. Make sure that there
are no obstacles between the sensor and the
remote control.

The remote control is supplied with a battery.

Before operating the remote control for the first
time, remove the foil at the battery holder. If the
remote control is not in use for a longer period of
time, always remove the battery as a precaution
to prevent damage due to battery leakage.

The on-screen displays described in this chapter
apply to the English menu language. To change
the language, go to

the OSD menu. The OSD menu for USB connec-
tion (

chapter 6.9) is only available in English.

Switching on / Stand-by

The monitor is switched on when it has been con-
nected to the power supply: The power LED (23)
is green and image and sound of the video
source most recently selected are reproduced.
When the monitor is operated for the first time,
the source at the SDI input (15) is selected.

If the monitor does not receive any video sig-

nal from the source, the name of the source and
the message

No Signal

will briefly be displayed.

After 30 seconds without video signal, the power
LED turns red. Without a video signal, there will
also be no audio reproduction of the source.

To go to stand-by, press the button

(5) on the

monitor or on the remote control; the power LED
will extinguish. To switch the monitor on, press
the button

again.

Even on stand-by, the monitor will consume

some power. To save power when the monitor
and the power supply unit are not in use for a
longer period of time, disconnect the power sup-
ply unit from the socket to completely switch off
the monitor and the power supply unit.
