Product Overview
The V-LCD84SB-AFHDis an 8.4” high definition LCD monitor with Marshall Electronics’ proprietary SunBright LCD panel, designed specifically for outdoor applications or high levels of ambient light. The V-LCD84SB-AFHD features our completely digital TFT-MegaPixel™ active matrix LCD system. Weighing only 2.8 lbs, this monitor is ideal as a light- weight high resolution viewfinder or focus-assist monitor. The V-LCD84SB-AFHD can also be rack-mounted with an optional 4RU adapter, or used in a desktop configuration with optional desktop stand . Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color and adjustable color temperature enable the most precise color representation possible. Our proprietary digital signal processing features 10-bit A/D conversion of all analog signals, with 4X over-sampling and 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering of composite signals. De-interlacing is performed using our HyperProcess™ algorithm with motion adaptive interpolation. Multi-format compatibility accommodates virtually all video formats including NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i standards. VGA and DVI inputs accept VESA standards allowing the display to be used as a computer monitor. Advanced features include aspect ratio settings, a variety of screen markers, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, H/V delay, and Pixel-to-Pixel™ mode.
Features
■High-Resolution 8.4” SunBright Panel
The V-LCD84SB-AFHD features Marshall Electronics’ new SunBright LCD panel, dramatically boosting the
efficiency of the backlight’s light utilization and minimizing the surface reflection of ambient light. The transmissive LCD produces high-contrast images, even in challenging outdoor lighting conditions. This technology features a much wider color reproduction range than typical transflective/reflective LCDs with increased backlight performance. The LCD panel features a brightness of 650 cd/m², 600:1 contrast ratio, and 160° horizontal and 140° vertical viewing angles.
■Multi-Format Compatibility
With a variety of analog and digital inputs, the V-LCD84SB-AFHD accommodates virtually all video formats. Input types include Composite Video, S-Video, YPbPr, SDI, VGA, and DVI with HDCP. Accepted formats include NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p, 1035i, and 1080i standards, as well as VESA PC formats through XGA (1024 x 768).
■End-to-End Digital Signal Processing
Analog signals are digitized using an advanced 10-bit process with 4x over-sampling, 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering, and exacting color space conversion. Video is scaled to fit on the screen in the highest possible resolution using a state-of-the-art LSI that incorporates precision gamma correction and our HyperProcess™ motion adaptive interpolation for interlaced images.
■ColorMatch™ Conversion with Color Temperature Adjustment
Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color space allows the V-LCD84SB-AFHD to replace any broadcast CRT monitor. Settings include D55, D65 and D95. Bias and Gain adjustment for each color enables precise color matching and white balance.
■Advanced Features
Aspect ratio settings, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, and H/V delay are a few of the advanced features making the V-LCD84SB-AFHD at home in any broadcast environment. Pixel-to-Pixel™ mode also allows native display of any incoming image format.
■Flexible Screen Markers
A variety of screen markers in both 4:3 and 16:9 modes allow accurate monitoring of the different aspect ratios used in broadcast environments.
■User-Definable Function Buttons
Two user-assignable function buttons on the front-panel allow quick access to numerous settings and features including aspect ratio, screen markers, monochrome mode, color temperature, delay mode, and more.

Maintenance
■Screen Cleaning
Periodically clean the screen surface using ammonia-free cleaning wipes (Marshall Part No. V-HWP-K). A clean micro- fiber cloth can also be used using only non-abrasive and ammonia-free cleaning agents. Do not use paper towels. Paper towel fibers are coarse and may scratch the surface of the polycarbonate faceplate or leave streaks on the surface. Antistatic and fingerprint resistant cleaning agents are recommended. Do not apply excessive pressure to the screen to avoid damaging the LCD.
■Faceplate Dusting
Dust the unit with a soft, damp cloth or chamois. Dry or abrasive cloths may cause electrostatic charge on the surface, attracting dust particles. Neutralize static electricity effects by using the recommended cleaning and polishing practice.
