Product Overview
The V-R842DP-AFHD is a dual screen high definition LCD monitor set featuring our completely digital TFT­MegaPixelactive matrix LCD platform. Utilizing 8.4-inch panels with 2.4 million pixels each, the V-R842DP-AFHD provides the highest pixel density available while occupying only 4RU. Our proprietary digital signal processing features 10-bit A/D conversion of all analog signals, with 4X over-sampling and 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering of composite signals. Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color and adjustable color temperature enable the most precise color representation possible. De-interlacing is performed using our HyperProcess algorithm with motion adaptive interpolation. Multi-format compatibility accommodates virtually all video formats including NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 720p, and 1080i/p standards. VGA and DVI inputs accept VESA standards allowing the display to be used as a computer monitor. Advanced features include aspect ratio settings, a variety of screen markers, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, H/V delay, and Pixel-to-Pixel mode.
Features
High-Resolution Dual 8.4” Panels
The V-R841DP-AFHD features an all-digital TFT-MegaPixelactive matrix LCD systemwith 2.4 million pixels. Each LCD panel features a brightness of 400 cd/m2, 400:1 contrast ratio, and a 170° all-around viewing angle makingthe display ideal in a varietyof environments and lighting conditions.
Multi-Format Compatibility
With a varietyof analog anddigital inputs, the V-R842DP-AFHD accommodates virtually all video formats. Input types include Composite Video, S-Video, YPbPr, SDI, VGA, and DVI with HDCP. Accepted formats include NTSC/PAL, 480i/p, 576i/p, 720p, 1035i, and 1080i/p standards, as well as VESA PC formats through SXGA (1280x 1024).
End-to-End Digital Signal Processing
Analog signals are digitized using an advanced 10-bit process with 4x over-sampling, 5-line super-adaptive 2D comb filtering, and exacting color space conversion. Video is scaled to fit on the screen in the highest possible resolution using a state-of-the-art LSI that incorporates precision gamma correction and our HyperProcess motionadaptive interpolation for interlaced images.
ColorMatch Conversion with Color Temperature Adjustment
Emulation of SMPTE-C/EBU color space allows the V-R842DP-AFHD to replace any broadcast CRT monitor.Settings include D55, D65 and D95. Bias and Gainadjustment for each color enables precise color matching and white balance.
Advanced Features
Aspect ratio settings, underscan mode, blue-only mode, monochrome mode, and H/V delay are a few of the advanced features making the V-R842DP-AFHD at home in any broadcast environment. Pixel-to-Pixel modealso allows native display of any incoming image format.
Flexible Screen Markers
A variety of screen markersin both 4:3 and 16:9 modes allowaccurate monitoring of the differentaspect ratios used in broadcast environments.
User-Definable Function Buttons
Two user-assignable function buttons allow quick access to numerous settings and features including aspect ratio, screen markers, monochrome mode, color temperature, delay mode, and more.

Maintenance
Screen Cleaning
Periodically clean the screen surface using ammonia-free cleaning wipes (Marshall Part No. V-HWP-K). A clean micro­fiber cloth canalso be used using onlynon-abrasive and ammonia-free cleaning agents. Do not use paper towels. Paper towel fibers are coarse and may scratchthe surface of the polycarbonatefaceplate or leave streaks on the surface. Antistatic and fingerprint resistant cleaning agents are recommended. Do not apply excessive pressure to the screen to avoiddamaging the LCD.
Faceplate Dusting
Dust the unitwith a soft, damp clothor 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.

Unpacking
Carefully unpack the V-R842DP-AFHD monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• V-R842DP-AFHD Monitor
• V-PS12-5V-1 Power Supply with 2-Pin Twist Lock Connector
• Operating Instructions
Inspect the unitfor any physicaldamage that mayhave occurred duringshipping. Should there be anydamage, immediately contact Marshall Electronics at (800) 800-6608. If you are not located within the continental United States, call +1 (310) 333-0606.
Installation
The V-R842DP-AFHD can be mounted in any standard EIA 19” equipment rack. Adequate ventilation is required when installed to prevent possible damage to the monitor’s internal components.
Connections and Power-On
Plug the V-PS12-5V-1 power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the2-pin twist lock connector to the back of the monitor.Please note that 12VDC can be also supplied directlyto the monitor from a variety of sources. The monitor will draw approximately 3.5 Amps at 12 Volts in operation.
Connect the required cables for video signal input and output. (Power must be applied tothe V-R842DP-AFHD for the active loop-though outputs to be activated.) All BNC connectors are rated at 75Ω.
Each screen maybe turned on by pressingthe power button located on the front panel. Select a video input by pressing the corresponding input select button.

Aspect Ratio Settings
Use to switchbetween 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratios.
As the V-R842DP-AFHD monitor has a native resolution of 1024 x 768 RGB pixels, incoming images are automatically scaled to fitthe screen:
• In 4:3 mode, images are scaled up or down tofill the entire 4:3 screen (1024 x 768).
• In 16:9 mode, images are scaled to fill the maximum 16:9 portion of the screen (1024 x 576), with black bars filling the remainder of the screen.
Note: The aspectratio setting is ignored when Pixel-to-Pixel mode is enabled.
Scanning Modes
Use this settingto switch betweennormal and underscan modes:
• In normal scan mode, the active portion of the video signal is displayed on the screen, with 0% overscan.
• In underscan mode, area around the active video area is displayed on the screen, resulting in blanking intervals being shown around the perimeter of the activeimage. Use thismode to clearlyview the edges of the active video area.
Delay Modes
Use this settingto enable one of three delay modes (H/V, H, V):
• In H/V delay mode, both horizontal sync and vertical sync are delayed, resulting in both horizontal and vertical blanking periods being shown on the screen.
• In V delay mode, vertical sync is delayed so that the vertical blanking period is displayed on screen.
• In H delay mode, horizontal sync is delayed so that the horizontal blanking period is displayed on the screen.
Note: Delay modesare only availablein normal scan mode.

Monochrome Mode
Use this settingto enable monochrome mode. Only the luminance of the image will be displayedas a grayscale picture.
Blue-Only Mode
Use this settingto enable Blue-Only mode. This mode displays only theblue color component of the image, switching off the red and green components. Use this mode when calibrating the monitor to SMPTE colorbars with the following procedure:
1. Allow the monitor to warm up for at least 5-10minutes.
2. Display SMPTE split-field color bars on the monitor using the internal generator or an external source.
3. Enable Monochrome mode.
4. Locate the pluge pattern (super black, black, and gray bars) at the lower-right corner of the screen. Adjust the Brightness knob until there is no visible difference between the super black and black bars, but the gray bar is still visible.
5. Adjust the Contrast knob until an even grayscale appears along the top bars.
6. Disable Monochrome mode.
7. Enable Blue-Only mode and adjust the Color knob so that the outermost bars (white and blue) appear to match in brightness.
8. Composite/S-Video NTSC only: Adjust the Tint knob until the third bar from the left (cyan) and the third bar from the right (magenta) appear to match in brightness.
9. Disable Blue-Only mode.
Pixel-to-Pixel Mode
Use this settingto enable Pixel-to-Pixel mode. This mode bypasses the monitor’s internal scaling function and displays incoming images in their native resolution and
aspect ratio, with a one-to-onemapping:
• Forincoming formats smaller than the native resolution of the LCD panel (1024 x 768), the image will be displayed in thecenter of thescreen using onlythe necessary LCD pixels. For example, NTSCor PAL imageswill occupy exactly 720 x 486or 720 x 576 pixels respectively. The surrounding pixelswill be black.
• Forincoming formats exceeding 1024 x 768 pixels, only the center 1024 x 768 of the incoming image will displayed occupying the whole screen, with the remainder of the picture cropped. For example, 1080i/p formats will both be cropped to 1024 x 768 and displayed full-screen.
Note: Pixel-to-Pixel mode will utilize the entirescreen (1024 x 768) regardless of the aspectratio setting. Pixel-to-Pixel mode is not available when using the VGA or DVI inputs.
