IMD Configuration Submenu

On-Screen Menu (continued)

■Overview

The QV171-HDSDI 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 QV171-HDSDI monitors can be looped together and each addressed individually via the protocol. All menu features of the QV171-HDSDI 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 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.
