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.

Global Top and Front Panel Features Use the Global tab to control multiple Marshall Electronics MD monitors simultaneously. Only the POWER, MENU and DISPLAY tabs may be used on the GLOBAL scale. All other options must be used on an individual monitor basis. To control monitors globally: 1) Click on the GLOBAL CONTROL tab on the bottom of the web page. This will display the GLOBAL CONTROL menu. 2) Press the SCAN NETWORK button at the bottom of the GLOBAL CONTROL menu.
The Network Control page’s Navigator allows you to scan your network for any other Marshall Electronics Web Enabled MD monitors. From the navigator, you can find and sort all monitors by their Host Name, IP Address or Model number. You can also access each monitor’s Network Control page. Rear Panel Features Press the Scan Network button once to scan your network for other MD monitors. The navigator will not detect any monitors added to the network if the scan was performed prior to their installation.
■ Remote Enable Select whether you would like to be able to access a particular monitor’s web page or web functions from another monitor on the same network or only through the current monitor’s web page. ■ Configuration Mode Use this drop down menu to select between the different IP configuration modes available for the monitor. ■ IP Address If you have selected the Manual configuration mode for the IP configuration mode, you will be able to enter an IP address manually in this field.
Input Module Installation 1. 2. 3. Remove Power From Unit Modules are cold-swappable only. Damage will occur if modules are inserted or removed while unit is powered.

Remove blank cover Insert Optional Module Decide which slot you intend to install module (Slot 1 or Slot 2) Carefully align the module with the chosen slot.
This can be selected for each individual panel, or on the global level under the GLOBAL column. When selecting from the GLOBAL column, each individual panel will load its own individual settings. For example, if you select User 3 from the GLOBAL column, each panel will load a separate User 3 setting, not a single file. ■ Save Setup MAIN MENU AND NAVIGATION Use this row to Save the current configuration on each individual panel or on the global level.
■ Marker Config Color Temperature Use this setting to choose one of three color temperature presets: • • • • • D55 (5500K) D65 (6500K) 9300K USER (Adjustable Color Bias and Gain) Linear (No processing is applied to the panel) Use this setting to enable monochrome mode. Only the luminance of the image will be displayed as a grayscale picture. ■ Gamma Use this row to turn the screen markers on an individual screen ON or OFF.
Network Control Page Use the check field modes for monitor calibration or to analyze individual color components of an image. In Monochrome mode, all color is disabled and only a grayscale image is shown. In Blue, Green, and Red check field modes, only the selected color will be shown. This MD Series monitor allows you to fully control all settings via a Lan100 Ethernet port on the rear of the monitor.
■ Remote Enable ■ Pixel-to-Pixel Use this setting to enable Pixel-to-Pixel mode. This Pixel-to-Pixel mode bypasses the monitor’s internal scaling function and displays incoming images in their native resolution and aspect ratio, with a one-to-one mapping: • For incoming formats smaller than the native resolution of the LCD panel, the image will be displayed in the center of the screen using only the necessary LCD pixels. For example, NTSC images will occupy exactly 720 x 480 pixels.
■ Text Tally Use the Text Tally option to lock the Text String color to the same color as the current Tally color. When there is no specific tally color enabled, the text string will default to the Text Color selection made in the IMD & Tally Configuration menu option.
