4.15 OSD Inactivity Timeout

By default, the receiver is configured to dismiss the OSD after an inactivity period of

minutes. To reactivate the OSD, you must enter a valid OSD hotkey sequence.

See

“Configuring the OSD Hotkey Sequence” on page 65.

Using the Serial Interface, you can modify the default configuration. You can disable the

OSD timeout or you can change the timeout period to any value between zero minutes and

10 hours. Setting the timeout period to 0 means that the OSD will not timeout. The

maximum timeout period that can be configured is 9 hours and 59

minutes.

You can dismiss the OSD at any time by pressing ESC

1. Activate the serial menu as described in “Accessing the serial menu” on page 42.
