Indicators
The
iPump 562

system using the front-panel push-buttons and LCD screens or OSD menus. You may also
view those settings and various status information using the front-panel LCD, LED or OSD
screens.

LCD
Normally, the LCD on the front-panel displays Unit label and currently tuned channel
parameters for information. Pressing
Enter
on the front-panel activates the LCD backlight.
When the OSD menu is active, the LCD on the front-panel displays the OSD item currently
selected. When certain status conditions, such as loss of signal occur, the LCD
automatically gets activated with illuminated backlight and displays relevant information on
the condition.
OSD
The On-Screen Display (OSD) menus are used to configure settings or monitor the status of
the IRD. The OSD information displays white text on blue background overlying 80% of the
video output viewed on a monitor connected to any of the video ports. The OSD screens are
activated (displayed on video monitor) and the menus can be navigated using the push-
buttons on the front-panel. On menus, a selected item is displayed with black text on white
background. Following example represents one of the OSD menus available on
iPump 562
.
