Video Config Submenu Use the Video Configuration submenu to select various video settings such as monochrome mode or blue-only mode. Video Configuration Submenu ■ Monochrome Mode Use this setting to enable monochrome mode. Only the luminance of the image will be displayed as a grayscale picture. ■ Blue-Only Mode Use this setting to enable Blue-Only mode. This mode displays only the blue color component of the image, switching off the red and green components.
■ Pixel-to-Pixel Mode Use this setting to enable Pixel-to-Pixel mode. This mode bypasses the monitor’s internal scaling function and displays images in their native resolution and aspect ratio, with a one-to-one mapping of incoming image pixels to screen pixels: • For incoming formats smaller than the native resolution of the window (or selected aspect ratio), the image will be displayed in the center of the window using only the necessary LCD pixels.
■ Curtain Color Use this setting to choose the default color displayed on the screen when no video input is present. Available colors are blue, red, green, white, and black. ■ Ctemp/Gamma Use this setting to choose one of three color temperature / gamma presets or to remove gamma settings: • • • • Linear (No gamma applied) 55K 65K 93K ■ Analog Phase (DVI-Analog or VGA input only) Adjusts the analog phase value to improve picture quality on DVI-A or VGA Sources.
■ HDMI CSC Auto (HDMI input only, via the DVI-I interface) The HDMI CSC Auto setting is used to accommodate newer HDMI interfaces that send colorspace signaling in the HDMI data stream. If this setting is set to On, the monitor will automatically determine which colorspace setting to use. If this setting is set to Off, or your HDMI signal does not contain colorspace signaling, the DVI-D CSC Mode described above will determine the colorspace configuration.
■ User-Definable Function Buttons Use the Function 1, Function 2, Function 3 and Function 4 menu items to define each function button on the front panel of the monitor. The following options are available for each button: • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • • Marker Center Marker Marker Backgrd IMD State Anc.
OSD Config Submenu Use the OSD Configuration submenu to select a variety of information to be displayed on the screen. OSD Configuration Submenu ■ IMD State Use this setting to turn the IMD text display on or off. This setting affects both fixed string IMD text and remote IMD text commands. ■ Status Display Use this setting to enable or disable status display. When enabled, the current video input standard is displayed on the top left of the screen.
■ OSD Tally Use this setting to choose how tally is displayed on the screen. The available OSD Tally options depend on the Tally Source selected in the IMD Configuration submenu When the Tally Source is set to Standard (contact closure), OSD Tally can be set to Off, RGY, RG, or GR: • Off • RGY On-screen tally is disabled Red, yellow, or green tally signals are indicated at both the bottom left and bottom right corners of the screen.
Use this setting to enable time code display on the screen. Time code is de-embedded from the vertical ancillary data (VANC) within the HD/SDI signal. Two types of time code can be selected to display on the screen: LTC (linear time code) or VITC (vertical interval time code). The position of the time code display varies based on the aspect ratio setting and presence of IMD text.
IMD Config Submenu ■ Overview The V-R241-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 industrystandard protocols, including TSL v4.0 and Image Video.
. TSL v4.0 Use the TSL v4.0 protocol setting when controlling the IMD from a TSL tally controller, or other controlling device which utilizes the TSL v4.0 protocol. The IMD # must be set for each screen in conjunction with the controlling device. MEI Use the MEI protocol setting when controlling the V-R241-DLW using the Marshall Network Controller box.
■ 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 Name (S/N) Use this setting to assign a name to each screen when using the Image Video or Marshall-IV 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 RotoMenu™ knob to edit the IMD Fixed String. Rotate the RotoMenu™ knob to move the cursor.
The EIA-608 caption protocol can define the color for the closed caption text. Use this setting to choose between using the color defined by the data stream or to override this data with any of the selected colors. The default setting for option is Auto. ■ 708 Color The EIA-708 caption protocol can also define the color for the closed caption text. Use this setting to choose between using the color defined by the data stream or to override this data with any of the selected colors.
• RGB Parade The R (shown in Red), G (shown in Green) and B (shown in Blue) components of the signal are displayed from left to right. • RGB Overlay The RGB components of the signal are overlaid. ■ Waveform Scale Use the Waveform scale option to switch between different graticule units on the Waveform display. Available options are mV, %IRE, Auto and Off.
Use the Colorize Waveform option to add or remove color from the Waveform display. When Colorize Waveform is ON, the YUV and RGB data components on the Waveform display will appear in different colors. When Colorize Waveform is OFF, all YUV and RGB data components will appear as white on the Waveform display.
■ DID/SDID Use this section to select which packet IDs should be counted on the DLW monitor display. For example, 0x6060 would count the Timecode data packets, 0x6101 would count the EIA-708 CC data packets and 0x6102 would count the EIA-608 CC data packets. Any ancillary packet ID can be chosen, from 0000 to FFFF.
