There are several options for controlling the OSD, plus one for the front display and one for controlling how long the menu stays up. The OSD "pop-up" can be enabled or disabled for each individual input (that's the OSD MSG: ON/OFF option on each input's setup menu). The OSD menu can be set to stay on indefinitely or turn off after 15, 20, 30, or 50 seconds of inactivity (that's the OSD TIME-OUT: option on the SYSTEM CONFIG menu). The front panel display can be on all the time or stay on for 15, 30, 45, or 60 seconds after a command (that's the DISPLAY TIME-OUT: option on the SYSTEM CONFIG menu).
