■ 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 screen (or selected aspect ratio), the image will be
displayed in the center of the screen using only the necessary LCD pixels. For example, 720p images will occupy exactly 1280x720
pixels in the center of the screen. The surrounding screen area will be black.

■ Aspect Ratio Settings

Use this menu option to switch between several aspect ratio settings.

As the V-R653-IMD-3GTE monitor has a native resolution of 1366x768 RGB pixels, incoming images are automatically scaled to fit
the screen:

• In 4:3 mode, images are scaled up or down to fill the maximum 4:3 portion of the screen. IMD text and time code are
superimposed on the lower portion of the image. The audio presence indicator and on-screen tally are displayed at the bottom
of the screen, outside the image.

• In Scaled 4:3 mode, images are scaled to a smaller 4:3 portion of the screen, leaving space for IMD text, tally, and audio
presence indicator to be displayed below or around the image. Time code is superimposed on the lower portion of the image.

• In Scaled16:9 mode, images are scaled to fill the maximum 16:9 portion at the top of the screen. In this mode, IMD text
and on-screen tally are displayed below the image. Time code and the audio presence indicator are superimposed on the lower
portion of the image.

• In 16:9 mode, images are scaled to fill the entire 16:9 screen. In this mode, all OSD features are superimposed on the
image. Note that when using a 16:9 input image in this mode, the image will be vertically stretched by approximately 10%.

The diagrams on the following page show how IMD text, timecode, and the audio monitor icon are simultaneously displayed on
the screen in each aspect ratio setting. The white area represents the video image.

DEINTERLACER SUBMENU

Use the Deinterlacer submenu to control the type of deinterlacing performed on interlaced input signals.

System Configuration Submenu

■ Deinterlacer Mode

Use the Deinterlacer Mode option to set the type of deinterlacing algorithm used:

• In Auto mode, the deinterlacer defaults to Motion Adaptive mode (see below), but uses Film Mode (see below)
whenever a film cadence is detected. This is the optimum deinterlacing mode for best picture quality and should be used
whenever possible.

• In Motion Adaptive mode, the image processor uses a motion adaptive de-interlacing algorithm. Film cadence detection
is disabled. Motion adaptive interlacing uses a variety of real-time algorithms to perform the best possible deinterlacing based on
the content.

• In Field to Frame, each incoming field is scaled to a full progressive frame by the scaler. It is normal for the image to
appear vertically “bouncy” or as shaking.

• In Interpolate (Bob) mode, each field is scaled to a full progressive frame by interpolating the missing lines from the
adjacent lines. It is normal for the image to appear vertically “bouncy” or as shaking.

• In Static Mesh (Weave) mode, the Deinterlacer combines or “weaves” each pair of fields into a progressive frame. It is
normal to see jagged artifacts on fast-moving edges.

■ Film Mode

Film mode uses specialized algorithms to correctly deinterlace content that originated in either 24fps or 25fps. Film Mode is
automatically entered whenever a film-to-video cadence is detected in the content. Film cadence detection is active whenever
the Deinterlacer Mode is set to Auto.

18

Use the Film Mode setting to limit the film mode detection to a specific cadence.

• Auto Deinterlacer automatically identifies the film cadence

• 2:2 only Deinterlacer only recognizes content originating in 25fps, and uses 2:2 film mode. 24fps content is
ignored.

• 3:2 only Deinterlacer only recognizes content originating in 24fps, and uses 3:2 film mode. 25fps content is
ignored.

■ Film Indicator

Use the Film Indicator setting to enable or disable the film mode detection icon. If the Film Indicator is set to On, a green square
will appear in the top left corner of the screen whenever a film cadence is detected. The Film Indicator can only be turned on
only when the Deinterlacer Mode is set to Auto. It is normal for the Film Indicator to sporadically turn on and off, depending on
the content.

■ Motion Display

Use the Motion Display options to display inter-field motion as false color (green) on the screen. This feature is used to visualize
how the deinterlacer is detecting motion in the content. It is normal for the screen to show large portions of green when viewing
moving images.

• Off Motion Display is off.

• Noise Pixels which change value between fields are displayed as green.

• Motion After a noise reduction filter, pixels which change value between fields are displayed as green.

OSD CONFIGURATION SUBMENU

■ Overview

The V-R653-IMD-3GTE 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 industry-standard protocols, including TSL v4.0
and Image Video. Multiple V-R653-IMD-3GTE monitors can be looped together and each addressed individually via the protocol.
All menu features of the V-R653-IMD-3GTE can also be controlled via the Marshall Network Controller box using MEI protocol.
(Contact Marshall Electronics for additional information).

Use the IMD Configuration submenu to configure various IMD parameters as described below.

IMD Configuration Submenu

25

■ IMD Protocol

Use the IMD Protocol menu option to choose the protocol with which the V-R653-IMD-3GTE receives remote commands.
Currently, four protocols are available. Contact Marshall Electronics for the latest protocol compatibility.

Image Video

Use the Image Video protocol setting when controlling the IMD from an Image Video tally controller (e.g. TSI-1000) or other
controlling device which utilizes the Image Video protocol. The IMD #, IMD Name(S/N), and Baud Rate parameters must be set
for each screen in conjunction with the controlling device.

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-R653-IMD-3GTE using the Marshall Network Controller box. This protocol
allows remote control of all features on the V-R653-IMD-3GTE, including marker setup, video configuration, system
configuration, and image adjustments (brightness, contrast, etc.). The IMD #, IMD Group #, and Baud Rate parameters must be
set in conjunction with the Network Controller Box.

MEI-Image Video

This protocol setting accepts Image Video commands via MEI protocol, for use when an Image Video controller is connected to
the Marshall Network Controller box.

■ IMD ID #

The IMD ID # identifies each screen to the controlling device. When using the TSL protocol, the ID # of each screen should be
manually set in conjunction with the controlling device. When using the Image Video protocol, the ID # may be set automatically
by the controlling device, after each IMD is initially identified by IMD Name (see “IMD Name[S/N]” below). Available ID #s are
000-255. When using the Marshall protocol, available ID #s are 001-254.

■ IMD Group #

Each screen can be assigned an IMD Group # when using the Marshall protocol. Available Group #s are 01-254.

■ IMD Name (S/N)

Use this setting to assign a name to each screen when using the Image Video or Marshall-IV protocols. The IMD name is
equivalent to the Image Video serial number and is used by the Image Video controlling device to identify each screen. The
default IMD Name(S/N) is “M00000.” It is recommended to maintain this naming scheme in order to avoid serial number
conflicts with other Image Video devices on the same serial bus. Each name can be up to 16 ASCII characters.

Press ENTER to edit the IMD Name. Use the  and  buttons to move the cursor. Press ENTER with the cursor on the character to
be changed and use the  and  buttons to scroll through character options. Press ENTER to choose a character.

■ IMD Fixed Color

Use this setting to choose the color of the IMD Fixed String text (see below). Available colors are red, green, and yellow. This
setting does not affect text color when using IMD text via the Image Video or TSL v4.0 protocols (text color is set via the
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 ENTER to edit the IMD Fixed String. Use the  and buttons to move the cursor. Press ENTER with the cursor on the
character to be changed and use the  and  buttons to scroll through character options. Press ENTER to choose a character.

■ Tally Source

The V-R653-IMD-3GTE tally (OSD and LED) can be controlled in a variety of different ways. Use the Tally Source setting to choose
how tally is controlled:

Standard

Use the Standard setting to control tally via contact closure on the HD-15 tally interface.

Image Video HW
Use the Image Video HW setting to control Image Video tally states via contact closure on the HD-15 tally interface. Contact
closure of the Red pin corresponds to Image Video Tally 1, and the Green pin maps to Image Video Tally 2. Contact closure
(ground) corresponds to a LOW state, and open circuit corresponds to a HIGH state. This mode requires the IMD Tally Mode
parameter to be set. Consult Image Video documentation for further information.

Image Video 422
Use the Image Video 422 setting to control Image Video tally states via the Image Video serial protocol. LED and OSD tally will be
disabled in this mode, as Image Video tally states are manifested in the text color and other parameters. This mode requires the
IMD Tally Mode parameter to be set. Consult Image Video documentation for further information.

Standard + IV422
Use the Image Video 422 setting to control Image Video tally states via the Image Video serial protocol, while controlling LED and
OSD tally using contact closure on the HD-15 tally interface. This mode requires the IMD Tally Mode parameter to be set. Consult
Image Video documentation for further information.

TSL/MEI 422
Use the TSL/MEI 422 setting to control OSD and LED tally via the TSL or Marshall serial protocols.

■ IMD Tally Mode

Use this setting when using Image Video tally control. Choose one of the following settings, in conjunction with the Image Video
controlling device. T1, T2, T1T2, T2T1, T1-, T2-, T1T2-, T2T1-. Consult Image Video documentation for further information.

Maintenance

■ 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.
