and reduces flicker. However, it suffers from motion artifacts. If selected, the text
color of this button is shown as red rather than black.
Soft Versus Sharp Mode (VideoTouch configurations only)
While in soft mode, video filtering and noise reduction can produce a better image
from some sources. Sharp mode provides maximum detail, but is more susceptible
to noise in source. If selected, the text color of this button is shown as red rather
than black.
Save Setup
It is advisable to regularly save setup parameters if the user is satisfied with the
settings. If parameters are saved, the settings are restored in the event of a power
failure. The Save Setup button located just above the Return button in the corner of
the Setup Menu may be selected at any time to save setup parameters. The button
text changes color from black to red while in save mode.
Return
Select the Return button, located at the lower right corner of the Setup Menu, after
setup parameters have been set.
Backlight Timeout Menu
NOTE:
Display backlight requires warm-up time. A display reaches 80% of its
final level in five minutes and full brightness in 20 minutes.
The touchpanel display hardware life can be lengthened by turning off the backlight
when the touchpanel is inactive. The Backlight Timeout button is located in the
middle row of the third column of the Setup Menu. Selection of this button changes
the touchpanel display to reveal the Backlight Timeout Menu, shown below. An
inactivity timer can be set for a specific time period ranging from 5 to 120 minutes
or timeout can be disabled with the Off button. Backlight timeout is factory set to
five minutes.

Panel Tracking
Panel tracking is a useful communication feature between touchpanels when more
than one touchpanel exists on the network. Panel tracking is enabled when the
Panel Track button, centrally located in the top row of the Setup Menu, is selected.
Selection is indicated with red text. When enabled, a given touchpanel maintains
communication in such a way that a page change to any touchpanel on the network
forces the same page change to all enabled touchpanels. Panel tracking is disabled
when the Panel Track button is deselected. When disabled a given touchpanel does
not respond to page changes made to other touchpanels on the network. Panel
tracking is factory set with the Panel Track button deselected.
