Menu Organization and Operation
Chapter 5 Menu Displays and Detailed Settings
• PAINT menu
This menu contains items for making detailed image
adjustments while using a waveform monitor to monitor
the waveforms output by the camera. Support of a video
engineer is usually required to use this menu. Although
you can also use an external remote control panel or master
setup unit to set the items on this menu, this menu is
effective when using the camcorder by itself outdoors.
• MAINTENANCE menu
This menu contains items for performing camera
maintenance operations, such as changing the system or
using infrequently used “paint” items.
• FILE menu
This menu is for performing file operations, such as
writing the reference file.
• DIAGNOSIS menu
This menu enables you to confirm the VTR status or
identify a failed circuit board.
Returning to the TOP menu from other
menus
There are two methods.
• Align the
b mark with “TOP” at the top right of the
menu page, and press the MENU knob.
• Push the CANCEL/PRST / ESCAPE switch down to the
ESCAPE position repeatedly until the TOP menu
appears.
5-1-2 Basic Menu Operations
When you open the cover of the menu operating section,
the MENU ON/OFF switch appears. If the MENU ON/
OFF switch is set to ON, the menu is displayed on the
viewfinder screen. Closing the cover automatically sets the
MENU ON/OFF switch to OFF.
Controls used for the basic use of the menu operations
This section explains operations on the USER menu. But
the operations are the same as those on menus other than
the USER menu. Also, if the optional extension boards are
not installed in your camcorder, some items on the USER
menu pages are not displayed.
Proceed as follows:
1
Switch the MENU ON/OFF switch from OFF to ON.
A USER menu page normally appears.
(For the DVW-970P, the DF/NDF item is not included.)
If the USER menu has been used before, the last
accessed page appears. In this case, go to step 2.
If this is the first time the USER menu has been
displayed, the CONTENTS page of the USER menu
appears. In this case, follow the procedure below.
1 Turn the MENU knob to move the
b mark to the
desired page number.
