The Function Menu allows you to assign user selectable functions to any of the 5 function buttons (F1, F2, F3, F4, & F5)
on the monitor keypad. Many monitor features listed as assignable options in the function menu are also selectable via the
embedded menus and are present simply to provide an option for faster, single button press, access to the desired function.
Other features listed require a Function Key for activation , but may have associated customizable settings that can be
found in other menus. To assign a function to a function key highlight one of the 5 Function lines and press ENTER. A list of
assignable functions will appear. Select the desired function with the UP and DOWN buttons and press ENTER to assign
that function to the corresponding Function Key. The Function Display option listed under Function 5 gives you the option
to have a temporary conrmation window appear on screen after a function key is pressed that will ID the function that was
turned On/Off. A review of assignable functions is listed below.
Scopes & VU Meters 1, 2, 3
These functions toggle On/Off a Scopes & VU Meters prole. Three prole slots are available from the Scopes & VU Meters
Menu and each prole can bet set to a specic function key allowing you to instantly toggle between various types of Scope
and/or Audio Level Meter congurations. Please note that if you have set both Scopes Windows to the Off position in the
Scopes & VU Meters menu nothing will appear on screen when you toggle this function (see Scopes & VU Meters Menu
section of this manual for more details).
Cross Hatch
The Cross Hatch function toggles on/off the onscreen display of a graphical cross hatch overlay.
Blue Only
This function activates the monitor’s Blue Only mode.
Marker 1, 2, 3
These functions activate the onscreen display of the preset Area, Safety, Custom Graticules, or Active Boundary Markers as
set in the Marker Proles. Marker presets can be customized via the Marker menu. By utilizing this function you can toggle
on/off your selected markers with a single function key after setting up your marker preferences in the Marker menu (see
Marker Menu section of this manual for more details).
Overscan
The Overscan function is selectable via an assignable function key. The Overscan function can work with 1:1 Pixel mapping
mode On or Off. With 1:1 Pixel to Pixel mapping mode turned off the Overscanned image is scaled full screen. With 1:1 Pixel
to Pixel mapping mode turned on the image remains unscaled but the area lying outside of the Active Scan area is blacked
out. This area represents the same area not visible with Pixel to Pixel mode off.
WARNING: Changing a function button
assignment does NOT automatically
turn an active function off. Make sure to
disable unwanted active functions before
changing function button assignments.
NOTE: Many features (Waveform,
Vector Scope, Audio Level Meters,
etc.) require a function key in order
to operate. Some menus (such as
the Scopes & VU Meters menu)
only set your display preferences
while a corresponding function
key must be assigned to turn
the feature on and off. If you
are having trouble with a monitor
feature make sure you have
assigned the proper function key
and any corresponding menu
settings.

Details on Overscan Function
With the overscan function Off all active lines of video can be displayed on screen. With overscan On a small percentage
of the outermost active video will not be displayed. Additionally, the monitor can scale the overscanned video full screen
or ‘blackout’ the outlying area while maintaining a pixel to pixel display of the video inside the active scan area. To toggle
between these variations of Overscan use the 1:1 Pixel to Pixel mapping function (see Function menu section of this
manual). With both Pixel to Pixel mapping and Overscan selected the area outside of the active scan will simply be blacked
out, but the active video will not be scaled outside of the 1:1 pixel scan. With Pixel to Pixel mapping Off and overscan On
the active scan area will be scaled full screen. To view all active lines in Pixel to Pixel mapping mode make sure to turn
Overscan Off.

Function Menu
Sub Window
The Sub Window function enables a Picture by Picture mode. After assigning the Sub Window function to a function key the
rst key press of that function key will result in a picture by picture display of your active input. Once sub window mode is
active you can press down on the H POS rotary knob to freeze the image on the right while the image on the left will continue
to show your live source. Once frozen you can also switch to any other input provided that the resolution of that input is the
same as the frozen source. However, you cannot view two live inputs simultaneously. To exit sub window simply press the
assigned function key again.
Pixel Mapping
The Pixel Mapping function toggles between various available pixel mapping options. Options vary depending on the
incoming source, but may include the following:
1:1 Pixel Mapping: 1 pixel of incoming source is displayed as 1 pixel onscreen. If the incoming source resolution is less
than the total pixel count of the monitor your source will not ll the screen, this is often referred to as a postage stamp
representation of the source. If the incoming source resolution is greater than the total pixel count of the monitor then
only a portion of the incoming source will be shown onscreen, but the pixel position function may be used to view different
sections of the 1:1 pixel representation. The monitor’s tally light will ash to remind you that you are in 1:1 pixel mapping
mode if any portion of the image is not shown on screen when in 1:1. This pixel mapping mode can be combined with the
SD Aspect Function (Anamorphic toggle) to activate a PAL SD FHA viewing mode on the monitor.
2:1 Pixel Mapping (SD sources only): Every individual pixel of the incoming source is represented by four pixels onscreen.
This scaling algorithm is simple and allows for a largely artifact free double size version of the 1:1 Pixel Mapping Mode for
SD sources. While 2:1 scaling will still not ll the entire screen on a 1920x1080 resolution monitor, it does use a majority
of the vertical screen height and provides an excellent quality large scale representation of the SD source.
Full Screen Mapping: The full screen mode will scale the incoming source to ll as much of the screen as
possible while preserving the incoming source’s native aspect ratio. If the incoming source and panel share
the same resolution then there will be no difference between 1:1 pixel mapping and full screen pixel mapping.
Please note that the Overscan function will be represented differently based on the pixel mapping selection that you select.
Pixel Position
This feature is a part of the Pixel Mapping function and provides a toggle for positioning a 1:1 Pixel to Pixel mapped
representation of an incoming source on different areas of the screen. Once pixel mapping is active the H POS knob
will move the source to a different onscreen position when pressed. Please note that if the incoming source is the same
resolution as the LCD panel the image will not move. The pixel position feature does not work unless the 1:1 Pixel to Pixel
mapping mode function is turned On. On 7”, 9”, and 17” monitors this feature can be used with the Pixel to Pixel Mode
to view any section of a 1080 source in a native 1:1, unscaled format. Similarly, on all native 1920x1080 or 1920x1200
resolution monitors this mode will allow you to view any portion of an incoming 2K source in an unscaled 1:1 onscreen
representation.
H/V Delay Mode
This mode activates the Horizontal and Vertical Delay Function to highlight the horizontal and vertical blanking portions of
the incoming signal.
Mono Mode
This mode activates the monochrome function. Press once to turn on and again to turn off.
Zoom
This function zooms in on the incoming source until the entire screen is lled. This is strictly a zooming function and does
not alter the native aspect ratio of the source to ll the screen. When viewing a 4:3 source in Zoom mode on a 16:9 display
the aspect ratio of the visible video will remain 4:3 though the entire 16:9 screen will be lled. Essentially the Zoom mode
results in viewing a 16:9 section of the 4:3 source and is most useful when viewing a letterboxed SD source on a widescreen
display so that the letterboxing is not shown and only the video within the letterboxing is present.
