Focus Assist:

The focus assist function will allow users to focus the camera with great precision. This feature is very
similar to a peaking function on other brand monitors. When enabled the object in focus will be
highlighted in white and everything else will be darkened or grayed out.

To activate Focus Assist press MENU scroll to the Advanced Tab and turn the Focus Assist slider to the
ON position hit MENU again to activate it. To deactivate it follow the reverse procedure. If you have a
HD089BV2 or HD089CV2 you can assign a hotkey to this feature under the setup tab.

User Presets:

User presets are a useful tool when you are shooting with multiple camera rigs and want to use the
same monitor. There are 3 user presets per input for a total of up to 15 user defined presets. What
you can do with each preset is set up the correct color and aspect ratio in the preset. So next time you
use that camera with the monitor all you need to do is choose the preset and you are ready to go.
Each preset will remember all of the settings inputted into the Picture tab and the image adjust tabs
of the monitor.

To activate a preset select preset from the picture tab use the Left/ Right arrows to scroll through
them and select the one you want.
