Maintenance
■Screen Cleaning
Periodically clean the screen surface using ammonia-free cleaning wipes (Marshall Part No. V-HWP-K). 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. Do not apply excessive pressure to the screen to avoid damaging the LCD.
■Faceplate Dusting
Dust the unit with a soft, damp cloth or chamois. Dry or abrasive cloths may cause electrostatic charge on the surface, attracting
dust particles. Neutralize static electricity effects by using the recommended cleaning and polishing practice.
Warranty
Marshall Electronics warranties to the first consumer that this V-R185-DLW LCD monitor will, under normal use, be free from
defects in workmanship and materials, when received in its original container, for a period of one year from the purchase date.
This warranty is extended to the first consumer only, and proof of purchase is necessary to honor the warranty. If there is no
proof of purchase provided with a warranty claim, Marshall Electronics reserves the right not to honor the warranty set forth
above. Therefore, labor and parts may be charged to the consumer. This warranty does not apply to the product exterior or
cosmetics. Misuse, abnormal handling, alterations or modifications in design or construction void this warranty. It is considered
normal for a minimal amount of pixels, not to exceed three, to fail on the periphery of the display active viewing area. Marshall
Electronics reserves the option to refuse service for display pixel failure if deemed unobtrusive to effective use of the monitor by
our technicians. No sales personnel of the seller or any other person is authorized to make any warranties other than those
described above, or to extend the duration of any warranties on behalf of Marshall Electronics, beyond the time period
described above. Due to constant effort to improve products and product features, specifications may change without notice.

Installation and Initial Setup
■Unpacking
Carefully unpack the V-R185-DLW monitor and verify that the following items are included:
• V-R185-DLW Monitor
• V-PS24-6.25-XLR-R/A Power Supply
• Operating Instructions
Inspect the unit for any physical damage that may have occurred during shipping. Should there be any damage, immediately
contact Marshall Electronics at [phone]. If you are not located within the continental United States, call +1 (310) 333-
0606.
■Installation
The V-R185-DLW 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. Please see the Dimensions section for more information.
A VESA standard 75mm hole pattern also allows custom mounting installations. Alternately, the V-R185-DLW can be used in a
desktop configuration with optional stand. Please contact Marshall Electronics for more information.
■Connections, Power-On and Initial Setup
Plug the power supply into an AC power source (100-240 V @ 50/60 Hz). Attach the Power connector to the back of the monitor.
Connect the required cables for video signal input and output. (Power must be applied to the V-R185-DLW for the active loop-
though output to be activated.) The monitor defaults to ‘ON’ when power is supplied. Video will automatically be detected and
displayed on the screen.

corresponding video input. Accepted video standards are
automatically detected.
User-Definable Function Buttons
Four user-definable function buttons can be used for direct
access to various settings. Functions are assigned using the on-
screen menu.
Layout Button
Use the Layout button to switch between the four available
layouts on the monitor. See the Layouts section for more
information the available l ayouts.

Rear Panel Features
SDI Inputs / Outputs and DVI-I Input
The V-R185-DLW has two 3G-SDI inputs and two active loop-
through outputs. SDI 1 and SDI 2 can be used simultaneously
to display Dual Link SDI signals. The DVI-I Input Connector
includes EDID and HDCP for connection to computers, DVD
Players, Rasterizers, etc.
Power Input
Connect the 4-pin XLR power input connector here. Power
should only be supplied from the included power supply.
IMPORTANT: If using a power source other than the included
power supply, damage may result. Please use the pin out
diagram in the Specifications section.
Tally Input / GPI Connector
The LED 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.
The HD-15 connector can also be used as a GPI port by
changing the settings in the On Screen Menu. No additional
power should be supplied to the HD-15 port.
RS-422/RS-485 Serial Interface
The RS-422/485 ports are used to remotely control the IMD or
all DLW features. (Note: Connector/pin-out may need to be
adapted depending on the protocol and controlling device
used). Only one connection to either port is needed to control
the monitor. The second port can be used to loop multiple
monitors in the same bus.
VESA Hole Pattern
VESA-standard 75mm hole-patters are provided to accomdate
a variety of custom mounting options.

■Limits
Use the Limits option to differentiate data (indicated by a red highlight) on the Waveform display that goes above a Limit Max
(maximum) and goes below a Limit Min (minimum) set in the Wave/Vector submenu. The Limit maximum and minimum can
be set from 0000 to 1023. Note: Setting the Limits option to ON will override the Colorize Waveform option. All Waveform
display data within the limits will appear in white.
■Limit Max
Use this to set the desired maximum for the Limit display of the waveform monitor. Any Waveform data that goes beyond
this Limit Max will be displayed in red.
■Limit Min
Use this to set the desired minimum for the Limit display of the waveform monitor. Any Waveform data that goes below this
Limit Max will be displayed in red.
■Vectorscope Targets
Use the Vectorscope Targets option to set your Vectorscope targets up for 75% or 100% color bar signals. You can also set
your Vectorscope Targets to the OFF position.
■Overlay Position
Use the Overlay Position option to place the Waveform, Vectorscope and Audio Level display on the Top or Bottom of the
screen while in the DLW Overlay display mode. You can also set your Overlay display to OFF.
■Overlay Transparency
Use the Overlay Transparency option to set the transparency of the Waveform, Vectorscope and Audio Level display while in
DLW Overlay mode. Choose a value from 000-100. A low value will cause the Waveform, Vectorscope and Audio Level data
to blend into the background, while a high value will make the data appear more visible against the video display in the
background.
Ancillary Submenu
Use the Ancillary submenu to determine which ancillary packet IDs should be counted in the Ancillary Status portion of the
DLW monitor display.
