Warranty
Marshall Electronics warranties to the first consumer that this OR-901-XDI LCD monitor 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.

Maintenance / Color Calibration / Upgrade Procedure
■ Screen Cleaning
Periodically clean the screen surface using ammonia-free cleaning wipes (Marshall Part No. V-HWP-K).
A clean micro-fiber cloth can also be used using only non-abrasive and ammonia-free cleaning agents.
Do not use paper towels. Paper towel fibers are coarse and may scratch the surface of the
polycarbonate faceplate or leave streaks on the surface. Antistatic and fingerprint resistant cleaning
agents are recommended. Do not apply excessive pressure to the screen to avoid damaging the LCD.
■ Faceplate Dusting
Dust the unit with a soft, damp cloth or chamois. Dry or abrasive cloths may cause electrostatic charge
on the surface, attracting dust particles. Neutralize static electricity effects by using the recommended
cleaning and polishing practice.
■ Color Calibration
An optional OR-SM Service Module is required for this procedure.
• Allow both the unit you want to calibrate and the Minolta® CA-210 to warm up for a minimum of 20
minutes.
• Attach the CA-210 color probe to the update dongle.
• With the unit still turned on, insert the update dongle into the service port at the rear of the
screen you wish to calibrate.
• Use the menu navigation Rotary encoder and
go to:
Color Menu
Color Temp
• Cal D65/D93 to calibrate both
• Cal D65 to calibrate only D65
• Cal D93 to calibrate only D93
Press the Rotary encoder to select and again to
confirm
• Follow the on-screen instructions
Notes:
1. If there is no color probe attached or you make a mistake and try to calibrate the incorrect screen, you
will get an error message and the screen will default to previous settings.
2. If the calibration process is interrupted while in progress, the current screen settings will be corrupted
and the calibration process will have to be repeated.
Firmware Update
1. Download the Orchid update software package from the Marshall web site
2. Unzip the included files from the zip folder to a known location on your computer
3. Double-click the Un-Zipped Orchid Update program and firmware package to install on your computer
4. Turn on the Orchid unit to be upgraded
5. Connect the OR-SM module to your computer
6. Insert the OR-SM module into the Service port
7. Run the Orchid Update program
8. Click Update
Notes:
An optional OR-SM Service Module is required for this procedure.
• The Updater will check for available software
• Compare it to the current version
• Perform the update.
• The update process will take approximately 8 minutes.
• If the Update program does not automatically detect your Orchid model you will be asked to
choose the appropriate model from a drop down list then click Update again.
• Clicking on Details allows you to monitor the update process

In the locked mode all front panel keys are disabled except for accessing the menu.
■ Picture Delay
Allows the user to select the processing delay time:
Normal Typically 3 frame delay with best picture quality
Fast Typically 1.5 frame delay at good picture quality
Fastest Typically 0.5 frame delay with some picture artifacts
■ Backlight
Allows user to dim the backlight from 100% to 25% in order to compensate for ambient lighting
conditions or to extend the life of the BLU.
■ Reset to MFG Default
• This will Restore all configuration values and functions to the default factory state.
• This will not change Model Name, Serial Number, or White Balance Data.
• Requires Confirm action by selecting Confirm again.
(Select Reset -> Press Enter -> Select Confirm -> Press Enter)

for about 8 seconds whenever video format is changed.
Off - This mode will not display any video format
information.
On - This mode will always display current video format
information.

REMOTE SUBMENU
■ Pin 1 through Pin 8:
The RJ-45 Remote connector on the rear panel has 8
pins. Pin 5 is Ground, while the remaining 7 pins are
pulled high to 3.3VDC and may be used for Tally or
other Remote Commands. A list of available Commands
and Tally configurations can be found in the REMOTE
section of the Menu Overview section of this manual.
The command or Tally is activated by connecting the
corresponding Pin (1-4 and 6-8) to Pin 5 (Ground).
Event Triggers:
Two types of events are allowed.
The falling event is when you pull down to ground, and the rising event is when you remove the
ground and the pin returns to the normal high state.
Falling events occur only once and on the event of power up sequence.
o This means a falling event will occur only once regardless of whether its pin is
repeatedly grounded such as when selecting an input source.
The rising event can only occur once a pin has been pulled down to ground to activate the
command such as turning on a tally and then releasing ground (open circuit) to turn off.
Priority
o The Lower pin numbers have higher priorities over higher pin numbers during the power
up sequence.
Tally System
The Tally System can be used in a non-separated mode and separated mode.
Non-Separated Mode
o Supports R/G/B tallies.
o Can mix any channels. FOR EXAMPLE: Mix Red and Green for Amber.
o Cannot mix R/G/B for White (It will be pink due to white balance).
o Cannot be assigned with separated tallies.
Left/Right Separated Mode
o Supports R/G/B tallies on each Left and Right.
o Can mix any channels for each Left and Right.
o Cannot mix R/G/B for White (It will be pink due to white balance).
o Cannot be assigned with non-separated tallies.
Optional Accessories for OR-901-XDI
SDI STATUS SUBMENU
The SDI submenu shows the SDI Error Count,
allows you to Reset the counter and sets up
how you would like to display the SDI Error
counter. The Choices are OFF – ON – AUTO.
The SDI Error Counter will count the following
types of errors.
• Line-based CRC error
• Line number error
• TRS error
• EDH CRC error
• ANC data checksum error
An error count of more than 1 could be considered as abnormal. There is no particular scale to the
number of errors counted. The max number of errors displayed is 9999. For example assume that there
is a problem with a source and it is outputting a SDI signal with invalid CRC for each line. The Orchid
Error counter will result in a count of 9999 within 9 frames (150ms). However, if the source is not bad
and the Error counter occasionally counts up these are mostly caused by poor connections or bad SDI
cables.
