IMD CONFIGURATION SUBMENU
■ Overview
The V-R171-IMD-HDSDI 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 and Image Video. Multiple V-R171-IMD-HDSDI monitors can be looped
together and each addressed individually via the protocol. All menu features of the V-R171-IMD-HDSDI can also be
controlled via the I-Tech Network Controller box and I-Tech protocol. (Contact I-Tech for additional information).
Use the IMD Configuration submenu to configure various IMD parameters as described below.

controlling device which utilizes the Image Video protocol. The IMD #, IMD Name, 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.
I-Tech
Use the I-Tech protocol setting when controlling the V-R171-IMD-HDSDI using the I-Tech Network Controller box.
This protocol allows remote control of all features on the V-R171-IMD-HDSDI, 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.
I-Tech-IV
This protocol setting accepts Image Video commands via the I-Tech protocol, for use when an Image Video
controller is connected to the I-Tech Network Controller box.
