The unit is designed for table top use or VESA wall mounting. Please adhere to the following clearances:
Table 1-1: Clearance Recommendations
| Clearance | Surface |
| 24" | Front |
| 3" | Rear |
| 2" | Sides |
Heat Dissipation
The ambient temperature inside the mounting enclosure should not exceed 40^ Celsius ( 104^ Fahrenheit).
Important
Heat generated by the power supplies and other components is vented by fans in the back of the unit. Therefore, as a safety precaution, you must allow proper ventilation on this surface.
Sympathetic Vibration
Sympathetic vibration from other equipment (cables, etc.) in the rack may be serious enough to interfere with the unit's sound quality. If you experience sympathetic vibrations, use thin card stock, felt, foam, or weather-stripping between the vibrating surfaces. Tie loose cables securely with cable ties.
Electrical Interference
Be careful to avoid mismatched cable types and other similar causes of undesired reflections in digital signal systems. If severe enough, such reflections can result in corruption of the digital data stream. As with any audio equipment, maximum immunity from electrical interference requires the use of shielded cable. The internal circuitry ground is connected to the chassis.
Power
The unit connects to an AC mains power source (100 to 240 VAC, 65W, 50/60Hz) using an IEC power cord.
When the mains plug or appliance coupler is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device should remain operable.
The unit may alternatively operate on a DC power source (12 VDC, 4A) using a 4-pin XLR connection.

Commonly Used Setups
The many settings in the menus of this monitor provide great flexibility in setting it up for many different tasks. However, this may be daunting for a new customer. This section provides step by step examples of how to perform some basic setups.
Input Source Selection, Single Picture Mode
Switching to view another source may involve more than simply switching the input source. It may also require the changing of various parameters such as gamut, EOTF, and so on. The vMON monitors make switching inputs simple, but setting up each input first requires a few steps. For example to set SDI 3 as the input source for a full screen display, use the following steps:
- Connect the signal to be monitored to the SDI 3 BNC.
- Press the MENU/EXIT button and then go down to the Source submenu.
- In this menu, set the Display Mode to Single, the Input Mode to Single Input, and the Win1 Source to SDI3.
- Go to the Function submenu and set S1 to Config1.
- Go to the Config submenu, set Save to Config1 and press the Volume Knob to save.
- After saving, from now on pressing the S1 button will cause SDI 3 to display.
Input Source Selection, Quad Split Mode
To set Win1 to display SDI 1, Win2 to display SDI2, Win3 to display SDI3 and Win4 to display HDMI, use the following steps:
- Connect the four signals to be monitored to the appropriate inputs on the monitor.
-
Press the Menu/Exit button and then go down to the Source submenu.
-
Set the Display Mode to Quad, set Input Mode to Quad Input, set the Win1 Source to SDI 1, set the Win2 Source to SDI 2, set the Win3 Source to SDI 3, and set the Win4 source to HDMI.
- Go to the Function submenu and set S2 to Config1.
- Go to the Config submenu, set Save to Config1 and press the Volume Knob to save.
- After saving, from now on pressing the S2 button will cause the Quad Split of the four input signals to display as follows:
| Win1SDI 1 | Win2SDI 2 |
| Win3SDI 3 | Win4HDMI |
Input Source Selection, SDI SQD/2SI
This sections the steps necessary to set up either SDI SQD or SDI 2SI to monitor a 4K signal. These steps are essentially the same for SDI SQD and SDI 2SI. Note that only vMON monitors that are capable of 8K can be set up to display an 8K signal. Use the following steps:
- Connect the signals to be monitored to the SDI 1/2/3/4 BNCs.
- Press the Menu/Exit button and then go down to the Source submenu.
- Set the Display Mode to Single and set Input Mode to SDI SQD.
- Go to the Function submenu and set S3 to Config1.
- Go to the Config submenu, set Save to Config1 and press the Volume Knob to save.
- After saving, from now on pressing the S3 button will display the 4K signal in Quad Lind SDI SQD Mode.
Configuration Settings
The configuration settings described above can also contain many other parameters such as brightness, contrast, EOTF curve, color gamut, and so on, in addition to simply the input source. In the following steps, Config5 will be set to display an HDMI signal, but with changed parameters:
- Connect the HDMI signal to be monitored to the HDMI input.
- Press the Menu/Exit button and then go down to the Source submenu.
- Set the Display Mode to Single, set Input Mode to SDI SQD, and set the Win1 Source to HDMI.
- Go down to the Color submenu and set the Color Space to U1_User1.
-
Go down to the Image submenu and set the Backlight to 80.
-
Go back to the Function submenu and set S2 to Config5.
- Go to the Config submenu, set Save to Config5 and press the Volume Knob to save.
- After saving, from now on pressing the S2 button will display the HDMI signal in Single Picture Mode, with the Color Space as U1_User1 and the Brightness set to 80.
Function Key Settings
Using the Function Preset setting in the Function menu, you may set up four different Function Key Presets. In normal operation, press the F key once and the Function Key Menu, as shown in Figure 2-22, pops up. The action performed by each of the Functions keys may also be set in this menu.
Pressing an S1 - S4 key after the Function Key Menu pops up will allow you to switch to a different Function Key Preset Group.
