Note that a downward-pointing arrow at the bottom line shown on the screen
indicates that there is more to the menu below the bottom of what can be dis-
played on your screen. You can scroll down to this part of the menu simply by
moving the cursor past the last item shown on the list. Once this is done, there
will be an upward-pointing arrow to indicate that the first line has now moved
off the top of the screen.
display timeout This setting controls the duration of these on screen messages generated by the
AVP when you change something. (Remember that you can disable the on screen
display entirely turning off the on screen status item on the menu.) You can set it
for 2, 3, 4, or 5 seconds, according to your preference.
display of text On screen messages are normally displayed with a black fringe around their
white letters when superimposed on live video signals. This display method is
easy on the eyes and almost always easily read. However, you can opt to have the
on screen messages displayed within a black box to ensure legibility even against
extremely bright backgrounds, when white letters might otherwise be difficult to
read.
display background color The default background color for the screen when lacking a live video signal, or
when in the menu system, is blue. This blue screen serves as a reminder that
your television is on when in fact you may prefer to turn it off.
Some people may prefer a green screen to differentiate the screen generated by
the AVP from others in their system. Still others may prefer to leave their projec-
tion televisions on in order to keep them warmed up and ready to use, in which
case a dark grey screen might be more desirable. (A dark grey screen would fa-
cilitate listening to music in a darkened room, for example, and saves unneces-
sary wear on the phosphors within the projector while keeping it warmed up
and ready to go.)
This menu item allows you to choose the best mode for your system, blue, green
or dark grey.
