IMD Config Submenu

■Overview

The V-R261-DLW features an In-Monitor Display (IMD) with the ability to display on-screen text and tally in three colors. IMD text, color, and alignment can be assigned to each screen locally using menu options (see below). Alternately, IMD text and tally can be remotely controlled via the RS-422/485 serial interface using several industry- standard protocols, including TSL v4.0 and Image Video. Multiple V-R261-DLW monitors can be looped together and each addressed individually via the protocol. All menu features of the V-R261-DLW can also be controlled via the Marshall Network Controller box using MEI protocol. (Contact Marshall Electronics for additional information).

Use the IMD Configuration submenu to configure various IMD parameters as described below.

IMD Configuration Submenu

■IMD ID #

The IMD ID # identifies each screen to the controlling device. When using the TSL protocol, the ID # of each screen should be manually set in conjunction with the controlling device. When using the Image Video protocol, the ID # may be set automatically by the controlling device, after each IMD is initially identified by IMD Name (see “IMD Name[S/N]” below). Available ID #s are 000-254.

■IMD Group #

Each screen can be assigned an IMD Group # when using the Marshall protocol. Available Group #s are 01-254.

■IMD Protocol

Use the IMD Protocol menu option to choose the protocol with which the V-R261-DLW receives remote commands. Currently, four protocols are available. Contact Marshall Electronics for the latest protocol compatibility.

Image Video

Use the Image Video protocol setting when controlling the IMD from an Image Video tally controller (e.g. TSI- 1000) or other controlling device which utilizes the Image Video protocol. The IMD #, IMD Name(S/N), and Baud Rate parameters must be set for each screen in conjunction with the controlling device.
