Installation and Initial Setup
■ Unpacking
Carefully unpack the V-MD173 monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• V-MD173 Monitor
• V-PS12-5A-XLR Power Supply
• Operating Instructions
Inspect the unit for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipping. Should there be any damage, immediately
contact Marshall Electronics at [phone]. If you are not located within the continental United States, call +1 (310) 333-
0606.
■ Installation
The V-MD173 can be mounted in any standard EIA 19” equipment rack. The attached rack ears can be angled to provide the user
control over the viewing angle. Adequate ventilation is required when installed to prevent possible damage to the monitor’s
internal components. Please see the Dimensions section for more information.
A VESA standard 75mm hole pattern also allows custom mounting installations. Alternately, the V-MD173 can be used in a
desktop configuration with optional stand. Please contact Marshall Electronics for more information.
Warning: Please use only the square type VESA mount (which fits inside the VESA Screw Length WARNING
silkscreen) with the 75mm hole pattern in order to avoid obstructing Module Slot 2.

■ Connections, Power-On and Initial Setup
Plug the power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the Power connector to the back of the monitor.
Connect the required cables for video signal input and output. (Power must be applied to the V-MD173 for the active loop-
though output to be activated.) The monitor defaults to ‘ON’ when power is supplied. Video will automatically be detected and
displayed on the screen.
