On-Screen Displays (OSD)
You can display the operation information for this unit on a video monitor. If you display the SET MENU and DSP sound field program
parameter settings on a screen, it is much easier to see the available options and parameters than it is by reading this information on the front
panel display.
If a video source is being reproduced, the OSD is superimposed over the image.
If a video source is not being reproduced (or the power of the source equipment is off), the OSD is shown on a blue background.
OSD Modes
You can change the amount of information the OSD shows.
Full Display .............. This mode always shows the sound field program parameter settings on the
video monitor (see page 73).
Short Display ............ This mode briefly shows the same contents as the front panel display at the
bottom of the screen, then disappears.
Display Off ............... This mode briefly shows the “DISPLAY OFF” message at the bottom of the
screen, then disappears. Afterwards, no changes to operations appear on the
screen except those of the

Caution:
• If you choose a video input source that has equipment connected to both the

jacks are connected to a video monitor, the video signal is output to both
the
S VIDEO OUT
and

jacks. However, the OSD is carried only on the
S-video signal. If no video signal is input, the OSD is carried on both the S-video and
composite video signals.
• If your video monitor is connected only to the
COMPONENT VIDEO
terminals of
this unit, the OSD is not shown. Make sure to connect your video monitor to the
COMPONENT VIDEO
