Installation and Initial Setup
■
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 I-Tech protocol, available ID #s are
001-254
.
■
IMD Group #
Each screen must be assigned an IMD Group # when using the I-Tech protocol. Available Group #s are
01-254
.

Unpacking
Carefully unpack the V-R171-IMD-HDSDI monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• V-R171-IMD-HDSDI Monitor
• V-PS12-6.6A Power Supply with 2-Pin Twist Lock Connector
• Operating Instructions
Inspect the unit for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipping. Should there be any damage,
immediately contact I-Tech at (800) 800-6608. If you are not located within the continental United States, call +1 (310)
333-0606.
■
IMD Name (S/N)
Use this setting to assign a name to each screen when using the Image Video or I-Tech-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 “M00001.” 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
t
and
^
buttons to move the cursor. Press
ENTER
with the cursor on the
character to be changed and use the
T
and
i
buttons to scroll through character options. Press
ENTER
to choose a
character.
■
IMD Baud Rate
Use this setting to choose the baud rate. The baud rate must be set in conjunction with the controlling device. Available
baud rates are
300
,
600
,
1200
,
2400
,
4800
,
9600
,
19200
,
38400
,
57600
,
115200
. The TSL v4.0 protocol is fixed at
38400 bauds.
■
IMD Fixed Align
Use this setting to choose the horizontal alignment of the IMD text. IMD text can be justified on the
left
,
center
or
right
of the screen. This setting is overridden when using IMD text via the Image Video protocol (alignment is set via Image
Video protocol).
■
Installation
The V-R171-IMD-HDSDI can be mounted in any standard EIA 19” equipment rack. The attached rack ears can be
angled to provide the user control over the viewing angle. Adequate ventilation is required when installed to prevent
possible damage to the monitor’s internal components.

■
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
t
and
^
buttons to move the cursor. Press
ENTER
with the cursor
on the character to be changed and use the
T
and
i
buttons to scroll through character options. Press
ENTER
to
choose a character.

Connections, Power-On and Initial Setup
Plug the V-PS12-6.6A power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the 2-pin twist lock
connector to the back of the monitor. Please note that 12VDC can be also supplied directly to the monitor from a
variety of sources. The monitor will draw no more than 6.0 Amps at 12 Volts in operation.
Connect the required cables for video signal input and output. (Power must be applied to the V-R171-IMD-HDSDI for
the active loop-though outputs to be activated.) All BNC connectors are rated at 75
Ω
.
All screens default to ‘ON’ when power is supplied. Video will automatically be detected and displayed on the screen.
For IMD setup details, see IMD Configuration Submenu on page 19.
