HOME SCREEN & USER INTERFACE

Home Screen & User Interface
At the Top of Every Screen
The Menu Bar at the top of the Home Screen shows the current processing core being viewed. There are between one and three
dropdown menus on top of the front panel screen depending on chosen font size. (You can select font size on the front panel
by clicking on the button labeled Menu). However, when using the NfRemote there can be as many as six of these drop-down
menus, depending upon how the computer screen is sized. Each drop-down menu has as choices: the location of the unit,
CPU Load, Speaker Volume, and Headphone Volume Additionally, when using the NfRemote there are choices for Client
Volume, and Client CPU Usage. A location name of the particular Omnia.9 can be user-customized (path: Home/System/
System Configuration/SNMP). If you wanted, each drop-down menu could have the same identical choice, a bit of a waste of
resources, but if it makes you happy…
There is also, a Menu button, and 6 display preset buttons.
WARNING:
Operating additional HD or Streaming processing cores, encoding multiple streams, connecting multiple
remotes, and using more display windows at one time places additional demands on the CPU, so as you
employ more of these features, it
’
s good practice to take note of the CPU usage. When CPU usage reaches
65%, the indicator turns yellow alerting you that you have reached a practical safe maximum. At 75%,
the indicator turns red to provide a warning that reduced system performance, including interruptions to
program audio, is possible.
