Precision White Balance with Color Temperature Adjustment
White balance adjustment is essential in order to render colors correctly.
To display colors correctly, gray scale should maintain identical color
temperature. The white balance for ORCHID monitors defaults to D65
(6500K) so the user does not need to adjust white balance.
LCD monitors have color-matching issues because white balance can be
affected by a change in luminance level. Our unique color management
system solves this problem.
The ORCHID operating system includes an Automatic White Balance
function that allows a “One Button” calibration procedure when used with a
Minolta CA-210 color probe. All Orchid Series LCD panels are calibrated
at the factory to ensure color conformity between screens.
Select color temperature and gamma mode
Color temperature presets may be selected between D65 or D93 as well as user-dened settings.
Gamma settings are adjustable from 1.0 to 3.0 in 0.1 steps. The standard setting is 2.2.
Flexible Screen Markers
A variety of screen markers in 4:3, 16:9, and full screen modes allow accurate monitoring of the different aspect
ratios used in broadcast environments.
User-Denable Function Buttons
Eleven user-denable function buttons and four Rotary Encoders on the front panel allow quick access to
numerous settings and features including Input 1, Option Input, Waveform, Vectorscope, Audio Bars, aspect
ratio, screen markers, monochrome mode, H/V delay mode, and more.
AUDIO Jack
There are 2 front panel Headphone jacks, one full sized ¼” and one 3.5mm. On the rear panel there is a stereo,
+4 line output using 3-pin XLR connectors and a 3.5mm -10 unbalanced jack to feed an external amplier.
It is possible to utilize both the front panel Headphone Connectors and rear panel line output connectors
simultaneously with individual volume controls
Precision Audio Level Meters
De-embeds and displays up to 16 channels of audio using sixteen
64-segment tri-color Audio Meters with user-adjustable reference levels.
The Audio Level Meters provide numerical indicators and headroom levels,
as well as peak hold function. Audio Channel Loss Warning prevents errors
during monitoring.

Connections and Power-On
Plug the power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the 4-pin female XLR con-
nector to the back of the monitor. The monitor will draw no more than 4.0 Amps at 12 Volts in operation (48
Watts).
Connect the required cables for the video signal input and output. Connect Audio Output cables
(Power must be applied to the OR-701A for the active video loop-through outputs to be activated.) All BNC
connectors are rated at 75Ω.
