Chapter 4
OSD Operation
This chapter provides a complete description of the procedures involved in the
OSD (On Screen Display) operation of your ACS1208 / ACS1216 installation.
OSD Overview
The On Screen Display (OSD) is a menu driven method to handle computer
control and switching operations. All procedures start from the OSD Main
Screen. To pop up the Main Screen, tap the [Scroll Lock] key twice.
Note: You can optionally change the Hotkey to the Ctrl key, in which case you
would tap [Ctrl] twice (see OSD Hotkey, page 26). With this method, the
[Ctrl] keys must be on the same side (both left, or both right).
The OSD incorporates a two level (Administrator / User) password system.
Before the OSD Main Screen comes up, a dialog box appears that asks you to
provide your password. If the password function has been set, you must
provide the password in order to access the OSD Main Screen.
If this is the first time that the OSD is being run, or if the password function has
not been set, simply press [Enter]. The OSD Main Screen comes up in
Administrator Mode. In this mode, you have Administrator privileges, with
access to all Administrator and User functions, and can set up operations
(including password authorization for the future), as you would like.
