10.4.9 User Text Menu

The IVS can insert additional text into the video image, for

example the production name or a scene number. The text

can be entered on the IVS using the text edit facility.

If information is stored in the text memory, it will remain

there until the memory is cleared or new information over-

rides the old one, even if the IVS or the camera is switched

off or disconnected from the power supply. This enables for

example a camera rental house to store information, which

is then available to the production team. This might be for

example the production name.

Like all man readable information, the data is inserted as

a window on the monitor image. The window can be

switched on and off independently. Background, position

and character format can be altered without affecting the

settings of other windows.

This additional line shows the text information, similar to this:

PROD. NAME UNIT A TAKE 35 SCENE 11/III

-> - USER TEXT LINE

- EDIT TEXT

- CLEAR TEXT

- POSITION

- EXIT

PROD. NAME UNIT A TAKE 35 SCENE 11/III

The adjustment of the white level of the inserted data, an inverse

display and a fine adjustment of the vertical position is

described in chapters 10.4.5 White Level, Inverse and

Fine Positioning.
