4.3.1 Controls
The Live screen shows the camera's live image using the selected image
resolution (size). This screen allows setting the most prominent image
parameters, executing important functions and getting specific camera informa-
tion. Icons, displayed text, the status bar, the Quick Controls above the Live image
and other display elements within the Live image help getting the required infor-
mation.
Icons
The three screen icons in the upper left corner allow switching between the Live,
Playback, and MultiView screens. The icon will open the camera's online help,
the icon displays information about the camera's operating parameters.
Text Display
The text displayed in the upper left corner of the live image can be customized and
positioned freely anywhere in the image, or it can be hidden (Setup Menu > Text
& Display Settings). In order to improve readability, you can select different back-
ground colors (with adjustable transparency) for the text in the live image. The text
itself can also be displayed in different colors. Apart from simple texts, the camera
can display status information using variables, e.g. camera IP address, image size
in bytes, time of the last event, frame rate, text transferred from external devices
using the serial interface, etc. For additional information on this topic, read section
