3.3.3.5 Video overlay setup
The video overlay operates in the similar way as the previous overlay by receiving a video signal
arriving from a user supplied subsea camera and overlaying it with the DeepView for Windows
information specified by the user via the Video Overlay Configuration. The Video Overlay Setup menu
is available via the Configuration options and provides the options illustrated below in

The video overlay has two possible modes. The first mode is where a copy of the Runview is overlaid
on the video output. This is selected with the “Duplicate Runview” checkbox. The other mode is where
selected information, for example the VRT and target position, are overlaid. The positions and colours
of each of these elements can be fully controlled by the user.
