Warranty

Marshall Electronics warranties to the first consumer that this NCB-2010 Network Control Box will, under normal use, be free from defects in workmanship and materials, when received in its original container, for a period of one year from the purchase date. This warranty is extended to the first consumer only, and proof of purchase is necessary to honor the warranty. If there is no proof of purchase provided with a warranty claim, Marshall Electronics reserves the right not to honor the warranty set forth above. Therefore, labor and parts may be charged to the consumer. This warranty does not apply to the product exterior or cosmetics. Misuse, abnormal handling, alterations or modifications in design or construction void this warranty. It is considered normal for a minimal amount of pixels, not to exceed three, to fail on the periphery of the display active viewing area. Marshall Electronics reserves the option to refuse service for display pixel failure if deemed unobtrusive to effective use of the monitor by our technicians. No sales personnel of the seller or any other person is authorized to make any warranties other than those described above, or to extend the duration of any warranties on behalf of Marshall Electronics, beyond the time period described above. Due to constant effort to improve products and product features, specifications may change without notice.

Product Overview

The NCB-2010 Network Control box is a comprehensive remote control solution for Marshall’s IMD (In-Monitor Display) line of monitors. The NCB-2010 offers complete control of each monitor's menu settings and adjustments such as contrast, color, curtain color, aspect ratio, and more. The NCB-2010 can control up to 255 monitors individually by ID#, or up to 512 monitors simultaneously on a global scale. The NCB-2010 also enables the use of third party UMD controllers such as Image Video or TSL, while maintaining remote control of the monitor’s settings and adjustments. The NCB-2010 is operated with a web interface via a standard TCP/IP network connection. No special application or additional software is needed other than a standard web browser.

Features

■

Full Remote Control

The NCB-2010 offers complete control of all monitor settings and adjustments, such as brightness, color, contrast, aspect ratio, screen markers, curtain color, IMD text, etc.

■

Control Entire Video Walls or Individual Monitors

The NCB-2010 can send global commands to affect all monitors in a video wall, or individual commands to affect single monitors identified by ID#.

■

Support for Third Party UMD Protocols

The NCB-2010 accepts and transmits Image Video or TSL v.3.1 and v4.0 protocol commands, while maintaining full remote control of the monitors settings and adjustments.

■

No Additional Software Needed

As the NCB-2010 is operated with a built-in web interface via a standard TCP/IP network, no special application or additional software is needed other than a standard web browser.
