Configuring a Video Monitor’s Source Reporting Behavior
To help you distinguish which sources are currently active on the monitor wall, monitors
that are capable of displaying an alarm status (e.g., video monitors,
subtitling monitors,
UMDs, alarm monitors) can have their borders, background or text configured to appear in
a specific color, based on their current source. Video monitors can provide this information
through their borders’ color. See also:
