When using the Video Monitor
output with the On-Screen Dis-
play, the DC-1 automatically puts
up a blue or grey background
when no video signal is present.
Occasionally, an incoming video
signal may be so weak that it is
recognized as essentially no sig-
nal, triggering the background
overlay. If this occurs, simply
reselect the input.

In addition to the front-panel LCD, the DC-1 contains a character generator
for a video overlay display on television sets. Since the on-screen display is
capable of showing the full menu of options available at any point, calibra-
tion of the system is faster and easier if the DC-1 video output is connected
to a video input on a television monitor.

location where they will not interfere with any other video overlays your
system may generate.
