Check this box to display the date
and time with the video image.
Check this box to display text such

image.
Enter the text to display to be
displayed (up to 16 characters).
Select whether the video image is to
be displayed as color or
monochrome.
Select one of the five video image
quality ratios.
The highest image quality is [Hyper],
but this requires the largest image
file size and network bandwidth.
Enter the horizontal display position
of an image as the [X Offset], and

is [Fullsize]. Verify the monitor
screen after changing settings, and
correct the setting values if the
image does not display correctly.

 Hint
Several different video modulation standards are
currently used in different regions. The NTSC video
format, generally used in Japan and North America,
consists of images composed of 525 lines of resolution
displayed at 60 fields per second. The PAL (Phase
Alternating Line) video format, which is the common
European television standard, consists of images
composed of 625 lines displayed at 50 fields per
second. The video network station supports NTSC,
PAL and several other standards derived from them.
