Using the On-Screen Display

(OSD) Menu

FLIR MPX cameras have an integrated OSD menu that allows you to configure camera

settings related to exposure, white balance, day / night settings and other camera image

adjustments. You can also configure advanced picture correction features such as Wide

Dynamic Range, Digital Noise Reduction and more.

The OSD menu appears as a text overlay on top of the camera image. In order to view the

menu, you must connect the camera to a monitor.

1.1 Accessing the OSD Menu

FLIR MPX cameras feature an OSD control stick on the camera cable for easy access and

configuration of menu items.

To access the OSD menu:

• Connect the camera to a power supply. See the quick start guide provided with your

camera for details.

• Connect the camera to a monitor or compatible DVR.

CAUTION

If using an analog test monitor or a 960H DVR, you must use the camera’s yellow analog video con-

nector. Use the green MPX video connector to connect the camera to an MPX DVR only.

• Push the middle of the control stick to open the OSD menu.

• Move the control stick ↑ / ↓ to move the menu cursor, then ← / → to change the value of

menu items.

• Push the middle of the control stick to confirm selection.

• Arrows beside menu items indicate a submenu (

). Select the setting and push the

middle of the control stick to enter the submenu.

• Select RETURN and push the middle of the control stick to return to the previous menu

from a submenu, or EXIT from the main menu to close the OSD menu.
