The Orchid OR-701A is a” 3-RU Full Featured rack mount Audio / Video monitor system. With built-in Waveform
Monitor, Vector scope, Audio Bars, Stereo full range speakers, multiple audio outputs and several diagnostic tools,
this monitor is ideal for use in control rooms, media duplication facilities and remote vans where monitoring the
technical aspects of the feed is as important as a high denition image. The OR-701A provides a complete Audio,
Video monitoring solution for 2 HD/SD-SDI feeds. The OR-701A is equipped with two HD/SD-SDI inputs with
an active switched loop thru as well as optional input slot which can be used for and additional Component, DVI-I
or other input formats. Diagnostic tools include our exclusive ClipGuide™ feature, 16 Tri-Color Audio Bar Graph
meters with peak hold and numeric display of headroom and peak levels, as well as real time analysis of color
space conversion Gamut Errors. Other standard features include factory calibrated screens, easy to navigate on
screen menus with 5 button control, 11 assignable function keys, 4 assignable rotary encoders, adjustable color
temperature, aspect ratio settings, a variety of screen markers, under scan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome
mode, H/V delay, 7 assignable GPI inputs…..
Features
High Resolution 7” Widescreen Panel
The OR-701A features an all-digital TFT-MegaPixel active matrix LCD system. The LCD panel features a nominal brightness of 350 cd/m2 and a contrast ratio of 400:1 making the display ideal in a variety of environments
and lighting conditions.
Waveform monitor function
The built-in waveform monitor (which includes adjustable White and Black
clip level indicators) can be displayed in various aspect ratios, positions,
and transparency options. The Waveform Monitor not only monitors
luminance, but can also warn the user for out-of-range conditions such
as overexposure or “blacker-than-black” errors with fully user-adjustable
warning limits.
Real-time Color Vectorscope
The built-in Vectorscope allows users to monitor color gamut range in real
time. It displays in full color and can also be displayed in various sizes,
positions, and transparency options. The Vectorscope has adjustable gain
from 1x to 5x.
ClipGuide™
The ClipGuide function operates with both the Waveform display and
Monochrome/Color picture display. Both the upper and lower ClipGuide
levels are user-adjustable in order to accurately display over-and-under exposures during different shooting conditions. For example, the upper ClipGuide limit may be set to 85 IRE and the lower limit to 10 IRE. With these
settings, any exposures over the set limit of 85 IRE will display red on both
the Waveform and picture (if selected). The same will be true for blacks
under 10 IRE.
Chroma monitor function
Included in the ClipGuide menu are settings for monitoring color gamut errors, which can occur in color space
conversion. Any data exceeding these values will be displayed as Yellow in the picture. The factory preset for C
limits are 16 and 240 according to ITU-R BT.709. Typically, these values should not be exceeded during normal
video production.

Precision Audio Level Meters
De-embeds and displays up to 16 channels of audio using sixteen
64-segment tri-color Audio Meters with user-adjustable reference levels.
The Audio Level Meters provide numerical indicators and headroom levels,
as well as peak hold function. Audio Channel Loss Warning prevents errors
during monitoring.
Precision White Balance with Color Temperature Adjustment
White balance adjustment is essential in order to render colors correctly.
To display colors correctly, gray scale should maintain identical color
temperature. The white balance for ORCHID monitors defaults to D65
(6500K) so the user does not need to adjust white balance.
LCD monitors have color-matching issues because white balance can be
affected by a change in luminance level. Our unique color management
system solves this problem.
The ORCHID operating system includes an Automatic White Balance
function that allows a “One Button” calibration procedure when used with a
Minolta CA-210 color probe. All Orchid Series LCD panels are calibrated
at the factory to ensure color conformity between screens.
Installation and Initial Setup
Unpacking
Carefully unpack the OR-701A monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• OR-701A Monitor
• 12V 4.6A XLR Power Supply with 4-Pin Female XLR Connector
• Operating Instructions
Inspect the unit for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipping. Should there be any damage,
immediately call Marshall Electronics Customer Service at (800) 800-6608. If you are not located within the
continental United States, call +1 (310) 333-0606.
Mounting
The OR-701A monitor features standard 19” rack mount conguration with tilt capability.
First secure the upper screws and then the lower ones.
Select color temperature and gamma mode
Color temperature presets may be selected between D65 or D93 as well as user-dened settings.
Gamma settings are adjustable from 1.0 to 3.0 in 0.1 steps. The standard setting is 2.2.
Flexible Screen Markers
A variety of screen markers in 4:3, 16:9, and full screen modes allow accurate monitoring of the different aspect
ratios used in broadcast environments.
User-Denable Function Buttons
Eleven user-denable function buttons and four Rotary Encoders on the front panel allow quick access to
numerous settings and features including Input 1, Option Input, Waveform, Vectorscope, Audio Bars, aspect
ratio, screen markers, monochrome mode, H/V delay mode, and more.
AUDIO Jack
There are 2 front panel Headphone jacks, one full sized ¼” and one 3.5mm. On the rear panel there is a stereo,
+4 line output using 3-pin XLR connectors and a 3.5mm -10 unbalanced jack to feed an external amplier.
It is possible to utilize both the front panel Headphone Connectors and rear panel line output connectors
simultaneously with individual volume controls
Connections and Power-On
Plug the power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the 4-pin female XLR connector to the back of the monitor. The monitor will draw no more than 4.0 Amps at 12 Volts in operation (48
Watts).
Connect the required cables for the video signal input and output. Connect Audio Output cables
(Power must be applied to the OR-701A for the active video loop-through outputs to be activated.) All BNC
connectors are rated at 75Ω.
