System Setup
This section describes the procedures required for making 
the following system setup options:
• Setting the override text position
The BZNP-D1 software provides an “override text” 
function, that is used for newsflashes and other 
emergency information. You can specify the position at 
which the override text should be displayed on the screen 
in advance.
• Setting an NSP-1 screen saver
You can specify a playlist that the NSP-1 plays when no 
playlists are scheduled to play. 
• Managing screen layout templates
For each set of the display resolution and orientation, the 
BZNP-D1 software allows you to create “templates” of 
screen layout, and apply those templates to playlists. 
This section explains mainly how to manage templates.
For detailed procedures on how to create a template, see 
“Making a Screen Layout Template” on page 23.
This section also provides the following initial system 
setup procedures that are not mentioned in Chapter 3.
• BZNP-D1 system setup items
• Details on registering and editing NSP-1 players and 
NSP-1 groups.
Read this section to make the desired settings, if they are 
required.
Positioning Override Text
The BZNP-D1 software provides an “override text” 
function, that is, a function to display a piece of text, such 
as newsflashes and other emergency information, over 
contents that are currently being played on the NSP-1.
The following procedure specifies the position (Y-
coordinate) at which the override text should be displayed.
The BZNP-D1 software has only one setting for the 
override text position. The setting is not specified for each 
piece of text material or for each NSP-1 group.
1
Select the Text tab in the Content Management 
window.
2
Right-click any point on the Text tab, then select 
[Override Text Position Setting] on the popup menu.
The Override Text Position Setting dialog box 
appears.
3
Enter a Y-coordinate (unit: pixels, the top of the screen 
is 0) in the text box for the position where you want the 
top of a piece of override text to be located, then click 
[OK].
When the screen resolution selected is “VGA (640 x 
480)” and the screen orientation is “landscape,” for 
example, specify “0” to display a piece of override text 
at the top of the screen, and a value around “465” (it 
varies depending on the text size) to display it at the 
bottom.
