Display apparatus, control method thereof, and display system
First Claim
1. A display apparatus comprises:
- a communication port communicating with an external source;
an on screen display generator generating an on screen display menu;
a display panel displaying the on screen display menu thereon, the display apparatus further comprising;
a pivot sensor sensing a pivoting angle of the display panel and outputting data corresponding to the pivoting angle when the display panel is pivoted; and
a controller setting an on screen display displaying direction of the on screen display generator according to the data relating to the pivoting angle from the pivot sensor and transmitting the data relating to the pivoting angle to the external source through the communication port.

7. A display system comprising:
-
an external source processing a video signal;
a display apparatus having a pivoting function, comprising;
a communication port communicating with the external source, an on screen display generator generating an on screen display menu, a display panel displaying the on screen display menu thereon, a memory storing data relating to a pivoting angle of the display panel, a pivot sensor sensing the pivoting angle of the display panel and outputting data corresponding to the pivoting angle when the display panel is pivoted by a user, and a controller comparing the data relating to the pivoting angle sensed by the pivot sensor with the data relating to the pivoting angle stored in the memory, setting an on screen display displaying direction of the on screen display generator on the basis of the data relating to the pivoting angle from the pivot sensor when the data relating to the pivoting angle sensed by the pivot sensor is not equal to the data relating to the pivoting angle stored in the memory, and transmitting the data relating to the pivoting angle to the external source through the communication port, wherein the external source processes the video signal according to the data relating to the pivoting angle received through the communication port and transmits the processed video signal to the display apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10)

11. A method of controlling a display apparatus comprising a communication port communicating with an external source, an on screen display generator generating an on screen display menu, and a display panel displaying the on screen display menu thereon, the method comprising:
-
storing data relating to a pivoting angle of the display panel;
sensing the pivoting angle of the display panel and outputting data relating to the sensed pivoting angle;
comparing the sensed data relating to the pivoting angle with the stored data relating to the pivoting angle; and
setting an on screen display displaying a direction of the on screen display generator according to the sensed data relating to the pivoting angle when the output data relating to the pivoting angle is not equal to the stored data relating to the pivoting angle, and transmitting the data relating to the pivoting angle to the external source through the communication port. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14)
