Input selection

The MDSC-1119/MDSC-2124 can be equipped with numerous different

video inputs. The available inputs may depend on the customer’s

requirements.

Input selection can be done in 5 ways:

• Automatically, by means of the Source Scan system

• By assigning a source priority

• Quick input selection by using the general purpose switch.

• Quick input selection by using the navigation keys without

entering the OSD.

• Using the Input selection menu in the OSD.

These 5 possibilities are described more in detail below.

Source scan

Source scan is a system that automatically scans all video inputs in the

display until it detects a correct video signal at one of the inputs. When

that video signal disappears again, the source scan system

automatically starts again, looking for another video signal.

The source scan system can be enabled or disabled in the Setup menu.

Source priority

In the Setup menu you can give priority to an input source. If a priority

has been established, the display will automatically select this source if

a signal is present on this input. The priority input selection will overrule

the manual input selection. For more information, please refer to

“Setup” on page 24.

Input selection

Quick input selection

You can quickly select another video input as follows:

1. Make sure the OSD is not on the screen. If it is, exit the OSD.

2. Touch the navigation keys or . The illumination is switched on

and the current video input is displayed.

3. While the illumination is on, touch the navigation keys or to

select another video input.

The quick input selection feature can be enabled/disabled in the Setup

OSD menu.

General purpose switch

If switches are connected to the display GPIO connector, you can use

them to switch inputs quickly. For this purpose, the GPIO input function

must be enabled in the Setup menu.

Input selection

Input selection menu

page 24.

Note: It can be that some of the inputs listed above can not be enabled

for your specific display configuration. For an overview of the possible

configurations, consult the connectors paragraph of the Getting Started

Guide.

Alias names

You can add alias names to the available inputs to make it easier for the

user to know what video source is connected to which input. E.g., if an

endoscopic camera is connected to the S-Video1 input, you can add the

alias ‘Endoscope’ to the S-Video 1 input.

To enter an alias name:

1. Select the desired input in the Input Selection menu.

2. Press for a few seconds, until ********** is added to the menu

line.

3. Now use and to select the first character.

4. Use to go to the next character.

5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 to make the alias name.

6. Use to delete the last entered character (like backspace on a

computer keyboard).

7. When the alias name is completed, you must use until the last

* is cleared.

8. To cancel the text edit without saving, press and for 2

seconds.

The alias names will appear in the Input Selection, Source Priority and

Enable Inputs menus, but only in the Input Selection menu you can

define or change them.

Adjustments

Adjustments menu

In this menu you can perform a number of image adjustments.

Note: When picture-in-picture (PiP) is active, the adjustments

will affect the PiP1 video frame only. If you wish to adjust the

video signal in the PiP2 frame, toggle the PiP frames in the PiP

menu so that the signal from frame2 is displayed in frame1. Then

make the adjustments (the PiP2 frame disappears while in

Adjustment menu) and finally toggle the PiP frames again.
