OSD label
Use the On-Screen Display (OSD) label menu to determine the time allotment for an input
label or a user defined OSD label. Input labels are generic labels shown for inputs 1, 2 and
3. For input 4, the user can create a custom OSD label to display.
The OSD labels are displayed (white box, black text) in the top left corner.
The OSD label can be turned off by setting its duration to Off from the Advanced
Configuration menu.
For OSD text, note the following:
Line 1 displays the input number.
Line 2 displays the input type.
Line 3 displays a text label that you can define (input 4 only).
The display time can be set from 0 to 5 seconds in 1 second steps (default is 2 seconds).
Test pattern
Test patterns are useful for calibrating a display to the DVS 304 output. Choose a test
pattern to adjust the image using built in crop, alternating pixels, and color bars.
NOTES:
Alt Pixels — Used to calibrate display devices input sampling to the output of
the DVS 304. Use this pattern to adjust the clocking and phasing at the display
until no more vertical bands are visible.
Crop — Used to center the output on the display device: adjust H and V center
on the display until all four crop lines are visible.
Color Bars — Used to calibrate color settings on the display and to confirm
proper system wiring.
