JVC Inc. Page 15

MKT-0027-UMN-1.002F JVC HR-1080-PRO Video Processor User Manual

4.2.1 Operate Mode

Operate Mode is entered by toggling the Operate/Setup button on the IR remote. A brief
transition of about 3 seconds occurs when Operate Mode is entered. During this transition
period, the 24 x 2 LCD Display indicates

JVC HR-1080-PRO
Please Wait

In Operate Mode, the video output signals are activated and you may control all of JVC HR-
1080-PRO parameters with the remote control (except for Setup restricted parameters, as noted
below). The LCD front panel display indicates the following information in its 24 x 2 character
matrix:

(Selected Input Connector) = (Input Signal Detected)
Output = (Output Resolution currently selected)

Depending on which IR remote key that you select, the operation of the OSD is slightly
different.

If you select the Menu key, the JVC HR-1080-PRO OSD appears on the screen. Complete
details on the OSD may be found in chapter 5. The OSD remains on the screen until you press
the Menu key once again or until 30 seconds with no IR remote activity passes.

If you select one of the dedicated HQV Feature keys, the HQV feature is immediately activated.
A brief message indicating the status of the selected HQV feature appears momentarily on the
screen (e. g. TRNR = Medium or CNR = Off).

If you select one of the Input Source keys, the selected source is chosen as the input. The
previously selected HQV Features, Aspect Ratio Treatment, Scaling and Video Parameters are
all preserved for each input; each input will appear exactly as you left it.

The JVC HR-1080-PRO powers up in Operate mode. All operational parameters are retained
from the previous session. A Factory Reset returns all parameters to the default state (defaults
are described in chapter

5 except for the input signal. The input signal most recently used is

retained as the power-up input signal.

4.2.2 Setup (Stand-by) Mode

Setup mode is entered by toggling the Operate/Setup button on the IR remote.

In Setup mode JVC HR-1080-PRO is in a low-power state. The output signals are de-activated
(no output will appear on your display device). Setup mode enables you to power the unit down,
but still leaves the IR receiver circuitry energized so that you can re-start the system with the IR
remote. When the unit is in Setup Mode, you can also make adjustments to certain sensitive

Page 16 JVC Inc.

JVC HR-1080-PRO Video Processor User Manual MKT-0027-UMN-1.002F

parameters, such as Output Resolution. Visual feedback for the adjustments of Setup Mode is
seen on the 24 x 2 LCD display, rather than on OSD of the main screen. Sensitive parameters
are placed in the Setup Menu so that an inadvertent key stroke with the IR remote does not cause
a change in a parameter that would be difficult to recover from. Table 1 lists the Setup
parameters and

Table 2 lists the output resolutions currently supported in the unit.

5 On Screen Display

5.1 OSD Menu Structure

The On Screen Display (OSD) is the primary way of controlling and selecting functions in the
JVC HR-1080-PRO system. When first powered up, the JVC HR-1080-PRO will be in a Factory
Default configuration, with English as the OSD language, Component Video as Video Input, and
S/PDIF Audio as Audio input. All other Factory Default parameters are indicated in Table 4.
When the user selects the Factory Reset from the OSD menu, the JVC HR-1080-PRO reloads all
of these default parameters, replacing any adjustments previously made. Certain parameters are
not affected by the Factory Reset and are left in their most recently selected position. These
parameters are: Language, Selected Input, and Selected Audio Input. As indicated in chapter
the Setup Parameters are not affected by Factory Reset.

The JVC HR-1080-PRO remembers all the signal processing parameters on a selected input
basis. When the user powers down or selects a different input, the processing parameters
previously selected are automatically re-established when returning to that input. An Input Reset
sets the currently selected input to its default parameters. (This allows the user to reset a specific
input channel without disturbing selections that affect the entire JVC HR-1080-PRO operation).

JVC HR-1080-PRO Video Processor User Manual MKT-0027-UMN-1.002F

Input aspect ratio is determined by the JVC HR-1080-PRO video mode recognition circuitry. Only
two output aspect ratios are supported, 4:3 and 16:94.

Inputs considered to have 4:3 aspect ratio are:

• Computer Graphics signals with a 4:3 aspect ratio appearing on the DVI and Analog

RGB inputs

• SDTV signals (NTSC and PAL derived) appearing on the Composite, S-Video, and

Component inputs

• SDTV signals (NTSC and PAL derived) appearing on the SDI input

• SDTV signals (NTSC and PAL derived) appearing on the HDMI input

4

The special case of 1280 x 1024 SXGA (an aspect ratio of 5:4) on output is treated as if it were 4:3. The output of
a 1280 x 1024 display will be slightly distorted; circles will appear to be vertically oriented ovals. Since the JVC
HR-1080-PRO is intended for Widescreen processing, the 1280 x 1024 SXGA is not a frequently encountered case.
Input of 1280 x 1024 will be treated as a pillar boxed 4:3 signal (i.e. it will have narrow black bars on the Right and
Left); aspect ratio of the picture content will be undistorted.

JVC Inc. Page 29

MKT-0027-UMN-1.002F JVC HR-1080-PRO Video Processor User Manual

Inputs considered to have 16:9 aspect ratio are:

• Computer Graphics signals with a 16:9 aspect ratio appearing on the DVI and Analog

RGB inputs

• HDTV signals (480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p) appearing on the Component input

• HDTV signals (480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p) appearing on the SDI input

• HDTV signals (480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p) appearing on the HDMI input

The five aspect ratio treatments, Standard, Full Screen, Crop, Anamorphic, and Flexview are
intended to achieve different aspect ratio objectives, and therefore behave differently depending
on which input and output aspect ratios are currently selected. The Aspect Ratio objectives are
the following:

• Standard: always displays the correct aspect ratio of the input picture; adds black bars at

the top and bottom or sides of the picture to achieve this objective

• Full Screen: always fills the screen with the complete picture; linearly distorts the picture

to achieve this objective

• Crop: always fills the screen with the correct aspect ratio of the input picture; crops the

picture’s top and bottom or sides to achieve this objective

• Anamorphic: intended to handle the specific case of 16:9 aspect ratio anamorphically

encoded into a 4:3 aspect ratio signal (e. g. an NTSC DVD encoded with a 16:9 picture

• Flexview: intended to handle the specific case of a 4:3 input aspect ratio and 16:9 output

aspect ratio

Table 5 to Table 8 present the five aspect ratio treatments over the four different combinations
of Input Aspect Ratio and Output Aspect Ratio.
