TVG System Guide
NOTE:
Only the five standard banner colors (yellow, orange, black, blue, and red) can be selected directly on
the monitor. If you want to select a custom color, you must do so through the unit's configuration
utility. For additional information, see Configuring a CCTV Monitor (TV-Out), page 28.
To modify the OSD settings:
1. In the Config menu, select OSD Params. The OSD Params screen opens, and lists the various banner
display options. A checkbox beside each option indicates whether it is turned on or off ( indicates the option
is on; indicates it is off).

Description
Display the name of the camera in live video camera panes.
The name of the camera, as it appears in the TVG’s configuration, is displayed unless
Camera Number (see below) is also selected.
Display the name of the camera in recorded video camera panes.
The name of the camera, as it appears in the TVG’s configuration, is displayed unless
Camera Number (see below) is also selected.
Display the date and time of recorded video.
When camera names are displayed, display them as Camera #x, rather than the name
of the camera as it appears in the configuration.
This option is recommended if the configured name of the camera contains non-English
characters, because these characters will not display properly on the monitor.
Note: If the Camera Name display is not turned on, this option has no affect.
3. If you want to select a different banner color, select Colors. The color selection menu opens.
