CP-3 Digital Surround Processor
The Video
On-Screen Display
In addition to the front-panel LCD, the CP-3 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,
calibration of the system is faster and easier if the CP-3 video output is
connected to a video input on a television monitor.
Adjustments to the on-screen display are made from the Display Adjust
menu. To display this menu, press SETUP. The display will show the
options available in the Setup menu. Press PARAM to move the cursor to
"DISPLAY ADJUST", then press either PARAM or PARAM to display
the Display Adjust menu.
This menu allows you to choose both the position and duration of items
displayed on-screen during normal operation.
Adjusting the position allows you to move the CP-3 display items to a
location where they will not interfere with any other video overlays your
system may generate.
The "DISPLAY TIME" option allows you to choose to have the on-screen
display always off, always on, or on for a two-second duration. Note that if
you choose to have the display "time out", this will not affect the display of
the Setup menu. Note also that parameter changes will still be effected when
you make adjustments with PARAM or , even if the display is inactive.
If you choose "Always Off", you will not be able to use the video overlay, and
even setup will have to be done using only the front-panel LCD.
Calibration
Once installation and calibration procedures are completed, if you find the
input level meters visually distracting, you can turn them off from the
Display Adjust menu. Simply press PARAM to select "LEVEL METERS" at
the end of this menu, then press PARAM twice to select OFF.
Press SETUP to return to the main menu.
