ON-SCREEN DISPLAY (OSD)
The OSD information is contained in a 14-line x 40-character display in the video output from the receiver. This
output is viewed on a monitor connected to the video monitor output of the receiver. Turn it on by pressing
either the SELECT or ENTER push-button on the front panel. Remove the display by selecting EXIT from the
Main Menu. When a menu is first shown, the cursor is always placed on its first action field (or action-with-edit
field, whichever is first).
The OSD provides the following:
1. Carrier Status, 2. Signal Strength Monitoring, 3. Serial Port device
selection, 4. Software Version, and 5. The ability to make changes to unit settings.
All menus are white text with a solid blue background. When highlighted, they show as blue text on white
background. The cursor can be moved only to the fields listed below. The function of each push button for each
field type is described below.

Elevated Operating Ambient
If equipment is installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient of the rack may be
greater than the room ambient. Therefore, considerations should be given to the TMRA, or Temperature inside
the Mounting Rack, and not just inside the room.
Reduced Air Flow
Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of
the equipment is not compromised.
Mechanical Loading
Mounting of equipment in a rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven
loading. This unit is not very heavy, but total rack loading should be considered.
Circuit Overloading
Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that
overloading of circuits could have on over-current protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of
equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Reliable Earthing
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to
supply connections other than direct connection to the Branch (use of power strips).
