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 000-255. When using the Marshall protocol, available ID #s are 001-254.

IMD Group #

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

IMD Name (S/N)

Use this setting to assign a name to each screen when using the Image Video or Marshall-IV protocols. The IMD name is equivalent to the Image Video serial number and is used by the Image Video controlling device to identify each screen. The default IMD Name(S/N) is “M00001.” It is recom mended to maintain this naming scheme in order to avoid serial number conflicts with other Image Video devices on the same serial bus. Each name can be up to 16 ASCII characters.

Press ENTER to edit the IMD Name. Use the and buttons to move the cursor. Press ENTER with the cursor on the character to be changed and use the and buttons to scroll through character options. Press ENTER to choose a character.

IMD Baud Rate

Use this setting to choose the baud rate. The baud rate must be set in conjunction with the controlling device. Available baud rates are 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200. The TSL v4.0 protocol is fixed at 38400 bauds.

IMD Fixed Align

Use this setting to choose the horizontal alignment of the IMD text. IMD text can be justified on the left, center or right of the screen. This setting is overridden when using IMD text via the Image Video protocol (alignment is set via Image Video protocol).

IMD Fixed Color

Use this setting to choose the color of the IMD Fixed String text (see below). Available colors are red, green, and yellow. This setting does not affect text color when using IMD text via the Image Video or TSL v4.0 protocols (text color is set via the protocols).

IMD Fixed String

Use this setting to display static IMD text on the screen. This setting is used to enter IMD text locally, when a serial protocol is not used for remote control. The IMD Fixed String is saved after power cycle. The IMD Fixed String will be overridden by serial protocol commands.

Press ENTER to edit the IMD Fixed String. Use the and buttons to move the cursor. Press ENTER with the cursor on the character to be changed and use the and buttons to scroll through character options. Press ENTER to choose a character.
