3.2.7. Setting how long the On Screen Display will be Active
OSD Timer =
Off
This menu item allows the user to control how long the on-screen display of the object attributes will be
displayed. The on-screen display will turn off after the amount of time set by this menu item with no front
panel activity. To turn off the on-screen display completely select off. To turn on the on-screen display all
the time select on. The on screen aspect ratio display shows the position, aspect ratio and other attributes
of the selected object.
The displayed aspect ratio may be slightly different than the target aspect ratio
(selected by the object's aspect ratio mode) due to rounding of the dimensions to
the closest line or pixel.
3.2.8. Selecting the On Screen Display Position
OSD Posn =
Top l
This menu item allows the user to set the area on the screen where the on-screen display will be shown.
Turn the right shaft encoder to move the display to one of 5 positions on the screen.
3.2.9. Selecting the SMPTE Safe Area Specification
Safe Area =
2046
SMPTE has recently published a new safe area specification in SMTPE ST 2046-1 based on fixed pixel
matrix displays and are significantly larger than previously specified in RP218, The safe areas specified in
RP218 are a legacy of past practice and are based on the limitations of CRT-based displays. This menu
item allows the user to set whether the SMPTE ST 2046 or RP218 safe area specifications will be used for
the factory presets
3.2.10. Operating the HD9690 in Auto Video Standard Mode
The HD9690 operates in an auto video standard mode and will attempt to detect the video standard of the
incoming video and change the current video standard to match. When the incoming video does not
match the current standard, the Graticule Generator will switch to the new video standard after
approximately 5 seconds. This delay prevents random standards switches that otherwise may occur
between some of the video formats. The new video standard will be displayed on the front panel. Video
standards changes will not occur while the Graticule Generator is in the Setup mode, or while the on
screen objects are being moved using the shaft encoder knobs.
Most of the supported standards can be detected, but there are some exceptions.
