cabinet. Retain this information for future reference.
Model No. : TM-910SU
Serial No. :
Thank you for purchasing this JVC color video monitor. To get the most from your new
high-performance monitor, please read this manual carefully beforehand.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
WARNING:
TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARDS, DO NOT
EXPOSE THIS APPLIANCE TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
CAUTION:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove
cover.
Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
䡵 PRECAUTIONS
● Use only the power source specified on the unit.
(120 V AC, 50/60 Hz or 12 V DC)
● Keep flammable material, water, and metal objects
away from the unit — especially the interior of the
unit.
● This unit incorporates high voltage circuitry which.
For your own safety and that of your equipment, do
not attempt to modify or disassemble this monitor.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside.
● Unplug the monitor when you’re not going to be using
it for a long period.
FCC INFORMATION (U.S.A. only)
CAUTION: Changes or modifications not approved by
JVC could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to
comply with the limits for a Class A digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a
commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not
installed and used in accordance with the instruction
manual, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. Operation of this equipment in a
residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in
which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.
䡵 HANDLING
● Avoid shocks or vibrations. These may damage the
unit and cause it to malfunction.
● Do not block the ventilation slots.
● Do not expose this unit to high temperatures.
Extended exposure to direct sunlight or a heater
could deform the cabinet or cause the performance
of internal components to deteriorate.
● Do not place the unit near appliances generating
strong electric or magnetic fields. These can
generate picture noise and instability.
● Keep the monitor clean by wiping the cabinet and
CRT screen with a piece of soft cloth. Do not apply
thinner or benzine. These chemicals can damage
the finish and erase printed letters. When the unit is
excessively dirty, use a diluted neutral cleanser, then
wipe away the cleanser with a dry cloth.
SCREEN BURN
● Try to avoid displaying still images or extremely
bright images on the screen for an extended period
of time. If left on screen for too long the image will
be permanently etched onto the CRT — a
phenomenon known as “screen burn”. Screen burn
is not a problem when displaying moving pictures
during video playback.

BASIC CONNECTION EXAMPLE
* Before connecting your system, make sure that all units are turned off.
* The illustration below shows some examples of different connections. Terminal connections may differ depending on the
component connected. Be sure to refer to the instructions provided with the unit(s) you are connecting.
* Each pair of input (IN) and output (OUT) terminals are bridge-connected. Do not connect input and output terminals inversely.
* If you're not connecting any equipment to a bridged output (OUT) terminal, be sure not to connect any other cables to the
bridged output (OUT) terminal as this will cause the terminating resistance switch to open (auto terminate function).
* When making a bridge connection, connect the input (IN) and output (OUT) terminals on the monitor to separate video
components.
(For example, if both terminals are connected to the same VCR, resonance may occur except during playback. This is caused
by the same video signal “looping” between the VCRs, and is not a malfunction.)
* Select the video input (VIDEO A or VIDEO B) with the VIDEO A/B switch on the front panel.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Solutions to common problems related to your monitor are described here. If none of the solutions
presented here solves the problem, unplug the monitor and consult a JVC-authorized dealer or service
center for assistance.
Problems
No power supply.
No picture with the
power on.
No sound.
Shaking picture.
No color, wrong
color, or dark picture.
Unnatural, irregularly
colored, or distorted
picture.
Dark stripes at the
top and bottom of the
screen, picture
vertically squeezed.
Picture flows.
Front panel switches
do not function.
External control not
possible with the unit
connected to TALLY/
REMOTE terminal.
Points to be checked
Is the AC or DC power plug loosened or
disconnected?
Is the battery fully charged (when using DC
power)?
Is the video signal output from the connected
component?
Is the input signal selected properly?
Is the video cable disconnected?
Is the audio signal output from the connected
component?
Is the volume output set at the minimum position?
Is the audio cable disconnected?
Is the monitor close to a device generating a
strong magnetic field (motor, transformer, etc.)?
Is the color system selected properly?
Is the COLOR OFF switch set properly?
Has the picture control setting (CONTRAST,
BRIGHT, CHROMA or PHASE) been changed?
Is the monitor close to a speaker, magnet or any
other device generating a strong magnetic field?
Is the aspect ratio set to 16:9 (_)?
Is the EXT SYNC switch set properly?
Is the monitor being controlled by an external
control unit via the TALLY/REMOTE terminal?
Is the switch on the front panel of the same
function as that on the external control unit to the
ON (_) position?
Measures
Firmly insert the power plug.
Charge the battery, or replace it with a charged
battery. (Refer to the instructions provided with the
battery.)
Set the connected component correctly.
Select the required video signal input with the
VIDEO A/B switch. (See page 3.)
Connect the video signal cable firmly. (See page 7.)
Set the connected component correctly.
Adjust the VOLUME control. (See page 3.)
Connect the audio signal cable firmly. (See page 7.)
Move the device away from the monitor until the
picture stabilizes.
Set the color system correctly with the NTSC/PAL
switch. (See page 3.)
Set the COLOR OFF switch to the OFF (—) position.
(See page 4.)
Set each picture control to the standard setting
(center) position. (See page 3.)
Move the device away from the monitor and turn
the monitor’s power off. Wait at least 30 minutes,
then turn the power on again.
Press the 4:3/16:9 switch to restore the normal 4:3
mode (—). (See page 3.)
Set the EXT SYNC switch properly. (See page 3.)
Set the control on the external unit of the same
function as that on the monitor’s front panel to the
OFF (—) position, or disconnect the unit from the
TALLY/REMOTE terminal. (See page 6 and 7.)
Set the control on the front panel of the same
function as that on the external control unit to the
OFF (—) position. (See pages 3, 4, 6 and 7.)
The following are not malfunctions:
● When a bright still image (such as a white cloth) is displayed for a long period, it may appear to be colored. This is due to the
structure of the cathode ray tube and will be deleted when another image is displayed.
● You experience a mild electric shock when you touch the picture tube. This phenomenon is due to a normal buildup of static
electricity on the CRT and is not harmful.
● The monitor emits a strange sound when the room temperature changes suddenly. This is only a problem if an abnormality
appears on the screen as well.
