Machine Noise Information Ordinance 3. GSGV,
January 18, 1991: The sound pressure level at the
operator position is equal or less than 70 dB(A)
according to ISO 7779.
Improper operations, in particular alternation of high
voltage or changing the type of tube may result in x-ray
emission of considerable dose. A unit altered in such a
way no longer meets the standards of certification, and
must therefore no longer be operated.
FCC INFORMATION (U.S.A. only)
CAUTION: Changes or modification 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 B digital device,
pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against
harmful interference in a residential installation. This
equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio
frequency energy and, if not installed and used in
accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful
interference to radio communications. However, there is
no guarantee that interference will not occur in a
particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception,
which can be determined by turning the equipment off
and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the
interference by one or more of the following measures:
– Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
– Increase the separation between the equipment and
receiver.
– Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit
different from that to which the receiver is connected.
– Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV
technician for help.

Supplementary Explanation
= Information for monitor operation =
This monitor uses a high precision CRT (cathode ray tube). Please follow the procedures below.
* For stable operation of the CRT, approximately 30 minutes running time is required from the time the power is turned on.
* When the monitor is installed, it can be easily affected by surrounding magnetic fields, which can generate irregular color
on the screen. When it is difficult to eradicate, degauss from outside using a degausser, etc.

BASIC CONNECTION EXAMPLE
Notes:
•
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.
• 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 signal (INPUT A(VIDEO) or INPUT B (VIDEO/Y/C)) with the INPUT SELECT buttons on the front panel. When both
VIDEO B terminals are connected (input) at the same time, the Y/C terminal has priority.

CONTROL
ABOUT EXTERNAL CONTROL
This monitor is provided with an external control terminal. MAKE (make contact) or TRIG. (trigger) system can be selected by
the setting of REMOTE SYSTEM in the <SET-UP MENU>.
MAKE (make contact system) : The function is controlled by short-circuiting or disconnecting each control terminal with pin 15
(GND).
TRIG. (trigger system) : The function is controlled by short-circuiting with pulses (for about 1 second) (short-circuit/open
with the 15th pin GND).
* The 14th pin (REMOTE ENABLE) is controlled with MAKE even though TRIG. is selected.
Note:
● When this monitor is externally controlled, the following buttons are disabled.
MAKE: INPUT-A and B, UNDER SCAN on the front panel.
Connections
Connect (short-circuit) the 15th terminal (GND) to each of the 1st through 14th terminals in the
3-lines 15-pins D-sub connector. The functions of each terminal are listed below.

ENGLISH
*1 : OFF stands for disconnection, and ON stands for short-circuit.
*2 : Do not connect.
*3 : Setting REMOTE ENABLE to ON enables remote control from the REMOTE terminal.
*4 : INPUT REMOTE setting in the set-up menu (REMOTE SYSTEM shown only when MAKE is selected.)
For the D-sub pins 2 and 3, 2-pin or 1-pin control can be set with INPUT REMOTE in the set-up menu.
• 2-pin control: Only the specified signal line in INPUT-A or B is short-circuited.
• 1-pin control: Switches between INPUT-A and INPUT-B only with the 2nd pin of the D-sub connector.
NOTES :
● When both INPUT A and INPUT B are selected (short-circuited) under the MAKE system, INPUT A has priority.
● To control INPUT A and INPUT B in MAKE mode, we recommend using the interlock switch, which turns off a switch when
another switch is turned on.
To control INPUT A and INPUT B in TRG. mode, we recommend using the return switch, which stays ON while pressed.
OFF : INPUT A
ON : INPUT B

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 colors, wrong
color, or dark picture.
Unnatural, irregularly
colored, or distorted
picture.
Dark stripes appear
at the top and bottom
of the screen, picture
vertically squeezed.
The overall picture
size is too small.
Function buttons on
the front panel do not
function.
The INPUT SELECT
buttons do not
function.
Points to be checked
Is the power plug loosened or disconnected?
Is the main power turned OFF?
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 to minimum?
Is the audio cable disconnected?
Is the monitor close to a device generating a
strong magnetic field?
Is the color system selected 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?
Has the UNDER SCAN button been pressed so
the UNDER SCAN button lights?
Has control of the buttons been locked? (Has
the CONTROL LOCK function been set to ON?)
Is input selection under external control? (Has
the REMOTE ENABLE function been set to
valid (ON)?)
Measures (Remedy)
Firmly insert the power plug.
Turn the main power ON. (See page 6.)
Set the connected component correctly.
Select the required video signal input with the
Input select button. (See page 7.)
Connect the video signal cable firmly.
(See pages 13 and 14.)
Set the connected component correctly.
Adjust the speaker volume with the VOLUME/
SELECT button. (See page 7.)
Connect the audio signal cable firmly.
(See pags 13 and 14.)
Move the device away from the monitor until the
picture stabilizes.
Set COLOR SYSTEM in the <MENU> screen to
AUTO. (See page 9.)
Set each picture control to the standard setting.
(See page 7.)
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.
Set ASPECT RATIO in the <MENU> screen to
[4 : 3 (4 – 3)]. (See page 9.)
When controlling externally, ASPECT RATIO
should be set to [4 : 3 (4 – 3)]. (See page 15.)
Press the UNDER SCAN button to turn off the
button. (See page 4.)
Set CONTROL LOCK in the <SET-UP MENU>
screen to OFF. (See pages 10 and 11.)
Set REMOTE ENABLE to OFF (invalid).
(See page 15.)
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.
● If two or more monitors are operated next to each other, their images may shake or be distorted. This phenomenon is due to
mutual interference; it is not a malfunction. Move the monitors away from each other until the interference disappears or turn
the power off on any monitor that is not being used.
