Product Overview
Marshall's 3D-241-HDSDI is a 24-inch 1920 x 1200 LCD monitor designed for professional Stereoscopic 3D (S3D)
applications. This monitor is only 2-1/4 inches (57mm) deep and uses advanced engineering to deliver natural,
flicker-free 3D images by utilizing a circular polarizing filter method when used with battery-free (passive) glasses.
The circular polarizing system used employs a 3D Arisawa Xpol® optical filter applied to the surface of the display.
The 3D-241-HDSDI also has 4 HDSDI inputs which provide the ability to monitor two S3D (right eye / left eye)
HDSDI signals. By using circular polarized glasses, the user can simultaneously view multiple 3D monitors in a
production or controlroom environment. This monitor also supports IMD (In-Monitor Display) and Tally functions
through RS-422/RS-485 connections.
Features
■1920 x 1200 Full Resolution 24”
The 3D-241-HDSDI features an all-digital TFT-
MegaPixel active matrix LCD system with
1920x1200 native resolution. The LCD panel
features a brightness of 400 cd/m2and a 1000:1
contrast ratio making it ideal in a variety of
environments and lighting conditions.
■Stereoscopic 3D (S3D) Viewing Modes
- Full-Screen, Full resolution S3D Viewing.
- Simultaneous S3D viewing of 2 Stereo Inputs.
- Special Tri-View mode shows separate Left and
Right Cameras, along with Stereo View.
- 50/50 Blend
- Luminance Difference Mode (Emboss)
■Quad-Viewer
Ability to view 2 Left/Right (4) inputs on the screen
at once. Each input source is scaled and
positioned in real-time so that all 4 can be seen.
DVI-I input can replace HD/SD Ch. B in this mode.
There are various Screen-Layouts from which to
choose.
■In-Monitor Display
In-Monitor Display allows on-screen text and tally
indication, controlled locally or remotely via a
variety of industry standard protocols.
■OSD Features (On Screen Display)
Embedded time code and an embedded audio
presence indicator can be displayed on the screen
in a variety of configurations. Closed Caption
presence indication is also provided for 608/708
captions.
■Advanced Features
Color temperature adjustment, aspect ratio
settings, blue-only mode, and monochrome mode
are a few of the advanced features allowing the
3D-241-HDSDI to be at home in any broadcast
environment. Pixel-to-Pixel mode also allows
native display of any incoming image format.
■User-Definable Function Buttons
Four user-definable function buttons allow quick
access to numerous settings and features including
3D mode, aspect ratio, monochrome mode, color
temperature, and more.

Installation and Accessories
Unpacking
Carefully unpack the 3D-241-HDSDI monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• 3D-241-HDSDI Monitor
• V-PS24-7.5 Power Supply with 4-Pin XLR Connector
• Operating Instructions
• GL-C45 3D Glasses (2 Pair)
• Desktop Stand (V-ST23-32)
Accessories
The 3D-241-HDSDI comes with a desktop stand (V-ST23-32).
The 3D-241-HDSDI supports VESA standard 75mm and 200mm devices. Marshall Electronics offers a
VESA stand with Pivot capabilities (VP-LCD171H-ST-01).
Also included are 2 pairs of 3D Glasses. These are special Circular Polarized Passive glasses, designed to work
specifically with this monitor. Use of other passive glasses may not offer the same performance as the ones
provided.

Monitor Front
POWER (Stand-by)
Turn the monitor backlight off or on by pressing
the power button. The LED on the power button
is at full illumination when the monitor is OFF.
INPUT SELECT Ch. A – Ch. B
This monitor has two input pairs (A and B). Each
pair supports separate Left and Right inputs.
In 3D Modes: Press A or B to select which
Left/Right Pair for display.
In 2D Modes: When in 2D mode, the Ch. A
button toggles between A Left and A Right inputs
and the Ch. B button toggles between B Left and
B Right inputs. This also switches the monitor to
full screen mode from any multi-screen layout.
SCREEN LAYOUT SELECT
When in 2D mode, the Layout button switches
the monitor between Quad Mode and Side-by-
Side mode. When in 3D mode, the Layout button
switches the monitor to 3D full-screen mode, A
and B mode or 3D/2D combo-Tri-View mode.
3D Enable (ON – OFF)
Toggle the monitor between 2D mode and 3D
mode2. When 3D mode is enabled, the in-button
LED will illuminate.
FUNCTION KEY F1 , F2, F3, F4
Four user-definable function buttons can be used
for direct access to various settings. Functions
are assigned using the on-screen menu.
RotoMenu™
The RotoMenu™knob allows for accessing
and navigating the main menu, using only a
single knob.
IMAGE ADJUST: BRIGHT, COLOR
, CONTRAST
The BRIGHT, COLOR and CONTRAST knobs
function as Image Adjustment knobs. The status
of each image adjustment parameter is shown on
the top left of the screen, with values ranging
from 0 to 100. Pressing a knob once displays the
current value. Pressing a knob twice resets the
corresponding adjustment to the default setting.
Adjusting the knobs while in any of the multi-view
layouts will adjust the primary window channel.

Monitor Rear
VESA Mounts
VESA standard 75 mm and 200 mm hole
patterns are provided to accommodate a variety
of custom mounting options.
RS-422 / 485 Serial Interface
The RS-422/485 ports are used to remotely
control the 3D-241-HDSDI and IMD/Tally
functions using a variety of industry standard
protocols. Only one connection to either port is
needed to control the monitor. The second port
can be used to loop multiple IMD capable
monitors in the same bus. This connector is also
used for field firmware upgrades.
Service Connector
DO NOT USE. This is for factory use only.
Connecting any device to this port may damage
the unit.
Tally
The OSD tally can be activated via the HD-15
connector by connecting the corresponding pin to
ground. A variety of external devices can be
used to perform the contact closure. No
additional power should be supplied to the HD-15
port.
Power Input
Connect the 24 VDC output to the XLR power
input connector. Power can be supplied from the
included power supply or from a variety of DC
sources supplying at least 6.0 Amps at 24 Volts.
Important: If using a power source other than
the included power supply, be sure that the
polarity of the DC output is correct.
